NUS DOBS Deep Ocean Basin

Edinburgh Designs were awarded the contract to build the highly prestigeous new Deep Ocean Basin at the National University of Singapore in 2016. 

The tank was commissioned in 2020 in the height of the Covid-19 Pandemic and handed over to TCOMS in early 2022.

The grand opening was held in July 2022.
