Deepwater Bathymetry

Deepwater Bathymetry

Deepwater Bathymetry

(OP)
Greetings,
I'm looking for whatever bathymetry I can find in the region around the Aleutian trench.  I'm already talking to people from the NGDC, NOAA, USGS, NIMA, and we have some CDs from the OAML.  If anyone knows of anything else, I'd love to hear about it.  
By the way, this is just a temporary rotation for me and then I go back to being a govt. paper pusher.  I've become very interested in ocean engineering during the course of this rotation.  Can anyone suggest where I might look in the commercial world for employment?  I don't want to live on an oil rig...I'd rather get into the R&D, and exploration side of things (ROVs, new structures, tools, mothods, etc).  I'm a graduate of the mechanical engineering program at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.  I might have a lead at Shell Oil, but I'd have to move from California to Houston.
Thanks for the advice,
Steve

RE: Deepwater Bathymetry

You could try Subsea 7 in Aberdeen they have their own build ROVS There are many operators in the Gulf of Mexico the biggest being Oceaneering of course. Have a look at the IMCA website (international Marine Contractors Association. They will list all the ROV members there.

RE: Deepwater Bathymetry

Yhe other place to try are the people who make subsea trees and equipment- Vecto Gray, Cooper Cameron, Konigsberg, FMC.

Mustang and Intec Engineering are two big names in subsea contracting- designing new offshore structures for the Oil & Gas industry
