Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC)

The Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center was established on 1 October 1993. It combined a number of NAVFAC activities including:

  • Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory (NCEL)
  • Naval Energy and Environmental Support Activity (NEESA)
  • Portions of Ocean Facilities Program of NAVFAC.

NFESC provides engineering services, technology testing, specialized facilities, and expertise in these facilities.

Although it does conduct business with a variety of other government and private organizations, the organization is centered on a primary customer, the United States federal government, specifically branches of the:

  • Department of Defense
  • Navy
  • Marine Corps

The Ocean Engineering Department of NFESC provides research and development of Ocean Engineering Technology and construction operations for all ocean facility projects.
