Vancouver, BC, May 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Deep Sea Minerals Corp. (CSE: SEAS) (OTCQB: DSEAF) (FSE: X450) (“Deep Sea Minerals” or the “Company”), a subsea mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing critical mineral opportunities from the deep ocean, is pleased to recap its participation at the 2026 Offshore Technology Conference (“OTC”), held May 4 – 7, 2026, at the NRG Center in Houston, Texas.
Deep Sea Minerals was represented at the conference by James Deckelman, Chief Executive Officer, and Dan McConnell, Vice President of Exploration. Mr. McConnell also serves as Chair of the OTC Board of Directors, reflecting the Company’s continued engagement with the broader offshore technology and marine resources community.
OTC 2026 brought together offshore energy, marine technology, government, engineering, environmental, and service-sector participants from across the global offshore industry. The conference provided a valuable platform for Deep Sea Minerals to engage with regulators, service providers, technical advisors, and other key stakeholders across the marine minerals sector.
“I was happy to see the strong marine minerals programming and engagement this year. We want the offshore service industry to be ready to roll-out services for us. OTC is a place to do that. The excitement was tangible with side meetings happening all week, a direct indicator of the upward trajectory the sector has. I was also pleased to see the U.S. Department of the Interior rolling out their plans for marine minerals lease sales on the exhibit floor,” said Dan McConnell, VP of Exploration of Deep Sea Minerals Corp.
One of the key themes at the conference was the continued growth of marine minerals as an increasingly visible component of the offshore technology landscape. Marine minerals panels and technical sessions attracted strong participation, highlighting the expanding role of offshore expertise in supporting future exploration, environmental assessment, subsea systems development, and responsible resource advancement.
“OTC 2026 demonstrated the growing importance of marine minerals within the broader offshore industry,” said James Deckelman, Chief Executive Officer of Deep Sea Minerals Corp. “The conference provided a valuable opportunity to engage with regulators, service providers, technology groups, and industry participants as the sector continues to mature.”
Deep Sea Minerals believes the increased attention on marine minerals at OTC 2026 reflects broader recognition of the strategic importance of critical minerals and the role offshore technology may play in supporting secure, diversified, and responsible developed supply chains.
Deep Sea Minerals Corp. remains committed to advancing its role within this evolving landscape through disciplined environmental, technical excellence, regulatory engagement, and collaboration with experienced offshore and environmental partners.
