Ocean Infinity Malaysia Airlines: New Evidence in Search for Missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370

A Texas-based company claims to have new scientific evidence regarding the final resting place of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370, which disappeared from air traffic control radars on March 8, 2014, while flying over the South China Sea.

Ocean Infinity, the Texas-based company, has announced a proposal for a new search in the southern Indian Ocean, where the plane is believed to have crashed a decade ago. The proposal, submitted to the Malaysian government, outlines a “no-cure, no-fee” search model, wherein the company will only be compensated if a positive outcome is achieved.

Chief Executive Officer Oliver Plunkett expressed the company’s commitment to finding MH370, stating, “Finding MH370 and bringing some resolution for all connected with the loss of the aircraft has been a constant in our minds since we left the southern Indian Ocean in 2018.”

The disappearance of MH370 remains one of the most perplexing mysteries in aviation history. The Boeing 777 vanished from radar shortly after midnight local time on March 8, 2014, with 239 people on board. Meticulous examination of radar data and satellite “pings” indicated that the aircraft deviated from its planned route, heading west across the Southeast Asia peninsula before altering its path southward over the Indian Ocean.

Malaysia’s Transport Minister Anthony Loke expressed confidence in Ocean Infinity’s proposal, stating, “I am very, very confident that the government of Malaysia and cabinet will approve such a proposal.”

Ocean Infinity previously conducted a three-month search in 2018 on a “no cure, no fee” basis, covering approximately 112,000 square kilometers, but no new findings were uncovered. Mr. Plunkett mentioned that the company is currently analyzing data to narrow down the search area in hopes of achieving success.

“This search is arguably the most challenging, and indeed the most pertinent one out there,” Mr. Plunkett remarked. “We’ve been working with many experts, some outside of Ocean Infinity, to continue analyzing the data in the hopes of narrowing the search area down to one in which success becomes potentially achievable. We hope to get back to the search soon.”

The proposed new search by Ocean Infinity brings renewed hope for closure and answers for the families and loved ones of those aboard MH370, as well as for the aviation community as a whole.
