They left us – The aquanaut Paul-Henri Nargeolet Posted on 06/29/2023 at 05:00
77 years old. French aquanaut. Died with the crew of the submersible Titan, he was a submariner who became a specialist in deep-sea diving and maritime archaeology. Originally from Haute-Savoie, this seabed explorer spent the first part of his career as a naval officer. Commander of the group of clearance divers in Cherbourg, he was then a submarine pilot in the Undersea Intervention Group of the French Navy. He devoted himself to the excavation of several wrecks within an association, the Naval Archaeological Research Group. The real turning point in his career came in 1986, when he became responsible for Ifremer’s deep intervention submarines. As early as 1987, Paul-Henri Nargeolet rubbed shoulders with the wreck of the Titanic aboard the French submarine Nautile and carried out, over the years, dozens of dives having notably enabled the recovery of several hundred objects. In 2007, he was appointed research program director for RMS Titanic/Phoenix International, which owns the wreck.
