The NTSB blames faulty engineering for the installation of the titan subman
Faulty engineering led to the installation of internal combustion engines that killed people en route to the Titanic disaster, the US National Security Council concluded in a report on Wednesday.
The NTSB made a statement in its final report on the failure of the Heller and the submersion of the Titan in June 2023, which killed everyone on board.
The report says that flawed engineering of the Titan “resulted in the construction of a carbon fiber composite alien vessel that contained many anomalies and failed to meet the requirements of strength and durability.” It also explained that OceanGate, the owner of the Titan, had failed to test the vessel and did not know its true strength.
The report also suggests that the Titan Freckage may have been on the scene sooner had it followed standard emergency response guidance, which would have saved “time and resources without this.”
‘You’re so wrong’
The NTSB report dovetails with a US Coast Guard report released in August describing the installation of the Titan as a blockage. The Coast Guard determined that the safety procedures at Oceagate, a private company in Washington State, were ‘grossly flawed’ and found “mismatches” between safety protocols and actual practices.
Oceacate suspended operations in July 2023 and damaged the bottom. Company representatives did not respond to a request for comment Wednesday. A spokesperson for the Company expressed condolences to the families of those who died after the Coast Guard report was released in August.
The Titan installation killed Oceanate CEO Stockton Rush and led to energy and calls for stricter regulation of deep-sea drilling. Invosion also killed French explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet, known as “Mr. Titanic,” British Adventurer Hamish Harding and two members of a Pakistani family, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood.
The NTSB report recommends a Coast Guard commission An expert panel to study undercarriage and other pressure vehicles for human occupancy. It also recommends that the Coast Guard implement traffic laws informed by that study.
It was also called by Odiodi Ogcabi to “distribute the findings of the study in the industry,” which has grown in recent years as privately recalled.
The ship has been making trips to the Titanic site since 2021. Its last dive came in the morning of June 18, 2023. The illegal recovery of the lost and its support vessel about two hours later was reported in the Afternoon. Ships, planes and equipment were rushed to the scene about 700 kilometers south of St. John.
Several searches for survivors of North Atlantic waters in Canada have been conducted by international Heatherlines. It soon became clear that there were no survivors, and the coast guard and other authorities began an investigation into what had happened.
