The Federal Oceanographic Fleet (Fleet) is a critical national infrastructure that supports Federal agency and academic oceanographic operations, surveys, research, and polar icebreaking capability across abroad spectrum of national needs. Ships provide access to the worlds oceans and Great Lakes, and enable data collection and research for thousands of stakeholders from academia, government, and the public sector. The Nation had an oceanographic Fleet of 35 vessels at the end of fiscal year (FY) 20151, but Fleet size is projected to decline to 18 vessels by FY 2030 absent further investment. This report, prepared by the Interagency Working Group on Facilities and Infrastructure (IWGFI), updates the May 2013 Federal Oceanographic Fleet Status Report based on retirements and new capacity. This governmentwide analysis of priorities, activities, and needs ensures that oceanographic agencies have the information necessary to make informed, coordinated, and costeffective Fleet investments that maximize the entire Fleets ability to support high priority research and surveys.
