Ocean engineering technology is essential to the U. S. Navy's mission. This paper presents a broad overview of the civil engineering-related challenges using two emphases. The first part of the paper illustrates the remarkable diversity of Naval ocean facilities, ranging in scale from deepsea burial of millimeter diameter fiber optic cables to the hydrodynamics of two kilometer long floating SeaBases. The second part of the paper outlines how fundamentally different the Navy's objectives and constraints are from industry, which in turn has introduced Navy-unique challenges, and the use and advancement of technologies not commercially available.
