Eng. Subhi Azmi
Al-Shakhsheer

Eng. Subhi Azmi Al-Shakhsheer is the visionary founder and sole owner of the Neptune Drive project — the world’s first commercial autonomous underwater cargo system. He conceived the original idea, developed the concept from vision to reality, and owns all intellectual property rights to this revolutionary project.

With exceptional foresight and entrepreneurial spirit, he identified a fundamental gap in maritime transport and created an entirely new solution. He conducted comprehensive market research, developed the complete business model, and established the strategic vision that positions Neptune Drive as a future leader in global logistics.

As the sole creator and developer, he has dedicated himself to every aspect of the project: from initial concept through market validation, from technical specifications to financial modelling, from brand identity to global strategy.

Eng. Al-Shakhsheer takes immense pride in developing Neptune Drive as a Saudi project with global ambition. He believes deeply in the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 and its goal of positioning Saudi Arabia as a hub of innovation — Neptune Drive is his contribution to that vision.

Founder’s Message

I am pleased to invite you to explore the Neptune Drive projects, which represent the fruit of years of precise engineering work, serious studies, and trusted global partnerships. We have not presented mere ideas; we have designed executable products with world-class specifications, competitive cost, and local manufacturing potential.

We believe that the future of transport, exploration, and maritime security begins in the depths. From this conviction, we have developed six integrated projects covering cargo, exploration, mapping, defence, civilian passenger transport, and military troop transport — all powered by autonomous, eco-friendly technologies.

We invite you to partner with us — whether through direct investment, co-production agreements, or opening new export markets. Together, we can turn the oceans into global highways and achieve global leadership worthy of our aspirations.

We look forward to a fruitful collaboration that serves our nations, economies, and security.
