SAN FRANCISCO , CA, UNITED STATES, July 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The underwater data center firm Subsea Cloud has opened offices in the Middle East and Australia. The office in Australia covers the Asia-Pacific region. Both locations are currently operational.
Additionally, Subsea Cloud revealed a collaboration with Deep/C Systems, a firm based in Hawaii. The alliance focuses on military operations in the Indo-Pacific, where U.S. and allied forces require computing infrastructure designed to endure in a contested environment.
Subsea Cloud engineers, constructs, and runs modular data center units placed on the ocean floor. Seawater surrounding the units provides cooling, eliminating the need for active cooling systems, reducing CO2 emissions by about 40%, and lowering costs by 70-80% compared to land-based alternatives. These pods function at depths ranging from 20 feet to 3,000 feet.
Maxie Reynolds, founder and CEO of Subsea Cloud, stated, "The Middle East and Asia-Pacific are adding compute capacity faster than they can build the land and cooling infrastructure to hold it." He continued, "Both regions have long coastlines, deep water close to shore, and sovereign customers who want their data inside their own jurisdiction. Offices in the Middle East and Australia put us next to those customers." Steven Briscoe, who heads Subsea Cloud's Middle East office, expressed enthusiasm about working in the area: “The region is building at a pace you don't see anywhere else, and I’m looking forward to growing our presence and our customer relationships across the Middle East." The Middle East office is managed by Steve Briscoe and Hannah Hawthorne-Briscoe.
This expansion comes in response to ongoing demand from sovereign and enterprise clients in both areas. Subsea Cloud has its headquarters in Los Angeles and has previously disclosed deployments in the North Sea and Southeast Asia.
Reynolds remarked regarding the Deep/C Systems partnership that "Defense workloads carry a requirement most data centers don’t fully design for, which is survivability." Greg Burns, CEO of Deep/C Systems, added, "The Pacific is the largest operating theater on earth and the hardest to build resilient infrastructure in. Compute on the seabed, close to where it's needed and hard to find, changes that math for the forces relying on it."
