OceanQuest is a new foundation established by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to advance deep ocean exploration to the world. The vision is to explore the ocean’s secrets for the benefit of humanity. The mission is to accelerate ocean discovery, drive ocean-tech innovation, contribute to the blue innovation economy, strengthen global scientific cooperation, and excite the public. OceanQuest funded the shipboard training (and other legs of the) 2025 Around Africa Expedition, working with POGO and OceanX on the design of the training programmes, selection of candidates, and pre- and post-cruise activities.
