Offshore Data Center and Riverway build U.S.-based data center platforms

Semisubmersible platforms use stranded offshore gas to power data centers cooled by deep-ocean water.

The platforms can support facilities of up to 1 GW for large-scale AI training, as well as smaller setups for edge and inference computing.

The design combines semisubmersible hull designs from Horton do Brasil with Riverway’s automated welding and advanced fabrication methods.

The closed-loop deep-ocean cooling system reduces cooling costs and improves power generation efficiency by up to 40%.
