What does SUBSEA mean in Scrabble?
adjective
technical
Located, carried out or used beneath the surface of the sea.
Subsea is a working word of the offshore oil and cable industries, where it describes pipelines, wellheads, robots and cables laid on the seabed. Because the water is deep, dark and under great pressure, subsea work is usually done by remotely operated vehicles instead of divers. The prefix means under, and the whole word is a close relative of undersea but sounds more technical.
