In 1968, the US Challenger drilling ship first sailed to the Gulf of Mexico, starting the US Deep-Sea Exploration Program (dsmp), which was earlier than the appearance of China's deep-sea scientific research ship. There were many deep-sea scientific research vessels in China, among which the earliest one was "Exploration No. 1", formerly known as "Ocean Oil 299". It belonged to the Institute of Deep-sea Science and Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and was planned to be transformed into a 4500-meter manned submarine mother ship and a deep-sea scientific research platform. From June 22 to August 12, 2016, China's first comprehensive 10,000-meter abyss scientific research activity was carried out. In addition,"Ocean Biology No. 2" was listed in the Guangzhou Marine Geolological Investigation Bureau of the China Geolological Investigation Bureau in December 2022. It was the first scientific research ship transformed from a marine engineering ship in China. On December 18,2023, China's first ocean drilling ship, the Dream, was officially named and launched in Guangzhou. There was also the "Science" marine scientific research ship, which was completed in September 2012. It was ordered by the Institute of Ocean Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It had global navigation capabilities and all-weather observation capabilities. It was the most advanced scientific research ship in China. It was difficult to define which ship was the first deep-sea research ship in the absolute sense because different research ships played a groundbreaking role in different deep-sea scientific research fields.
