Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
Conflict Minerals Disclosure
This disclosure on Form SD (the “Form SD”) for the year ended December 31, 2023 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”). The Rule was adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to Conflict Minerals as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC reporting companies that manufacture or contract to manufacture products if any one or more of the minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The specified minerals are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite and their respective derivatives tantalum, tin and tungsten (collectively, the “Covered Minerals”). As used in this Form SD, “Oceaneering,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Oceaneering International, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Oceaneering has conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry of its suppliers to determine whether any Covered Minerals necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by Oceaneering during 2023 originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, as defined by paragraph (d)(1) of Item 1.01 of Form SD. Oceaneering exercised due diligence on the source and chain of custody of its Covered Minerals that conforms materially to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Framework for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.
A copy of this Form SD and the Conflict Minerals Report, filed as Exhibit 1.01 hereto, are publicly available on our Web site at https://www.oceaneering.com/sustainability/ethics-and-compliance/. Item 1.02 Exhibit
