Oceaneering International is a company that builds and operates underwater robots and equipment used in the oil and gas industry. Its main products include remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), which are underwater machines that inspect and repair pipelines and drilling equipment on the ocean floor. Energy companies like BP, Shell, and Chevron are its core customers, and Oceaneering is one of the largest providers of ROV services in the world.

The company earns money by renting out its ROVs and providing specialized engineering services under contracts with offshore energy producers. It operates globally, with a strong presence in the Gulf of Mexico, North Sea, and offshore West Africa. Oceaneering has also been expanding into non-energy markets like aerospace and defense, which helps reduce its dependence on oil prices — but its financial results still move closely with offshore drilling activity, meaning a slowdown in deepwater exploration remains its biggest risk.
