A new report released by Canada's Transportation Safety Board on 17 June has exposed the critical engineering and oversight failures by OceanGate that doomed its Titan submersible and its five passengers.
The investigation into the June 2023 implosion concluded that the vessel's novel carbon fibre hull suffered progressive damage that went undetected and unaddressed, in part because the company operated without any meaningful regulatory oversight while diving in international waters off Newfoundland.
