ʻO ka Titanium kahi metala nui loa a pono, a ʻo kekahi o kāna mau noi nui aia i ka ʻoihana kai. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona kūʻokoʻa o kēia metala he mea kūpono ia no nā noi moana he nui, me kona kūpaʻa kūʻokoʻa i ka corrosion, ke kaumaha māmā, ka ikaika kiʻekiʻe, a me ka hoʻonui haʻahaʻa wela. Ma lalo iho nei kekahi o nā noi koʻikoʻi o ka titanium i ka ʻoihana moana:
Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka Titanium i ka hana moku ma muli o kona kūʻē ʻana i ka wai paʻakai, ʻo ia ke kumu nui o ka ʻino i loko o kahi kai. ʻO ka lakio maikaʻi loa o ka ikaika a me ke kaumaha o ka metala he mea kūpono ia no nā ʻāpana he nui o nā moku, me nā pahu wahie, nā kumu propeller, a me nā ʻāpana hana ʻē aʻe.
I ka ʻimi ʻana i ke kai hohonu, he mea nui ia i nā mea a pau e pili ana i ka wai kai e kūpaʻa loa i ka corrosion, a ʻo ka titanium ka mea kūpono no kēia noi. ʻO ka hiki o ka metala ke mālama i kona kūpaʻa i nā kaiapuni kiʻekiʻe a me ke kū'ē i ka corrosion e kūpono ia no nā noi "down hole" e like me nā mea hana wili.
ʻO kekahi o ka hoʻohana maʻamau o ka titanium i ka ʻoihana moana no ka hana ʻana i nā valves. He nui nā mea hoʻohana o Valves i nā kaiapuni kai, me ka hoʻomalu ʻana i ke kahe o ka wai a me ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i nā luawai ʻaila a me nā ʻea. ʻO ke kūpaʻa ʻana o ka metala i ka ʻinoʻino o ke kai a me ka ʻili kemika e hōʻoia i kēia mau mea i ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o ke ola ma mua o nā mea kahiko.
