**Oceanic-Creations AB** was a company based in [Sweden](/source/Sweden), founded in 1986 around the so-called **Oceanic-Creations Composite Technology** (OCCT), a special process for producing a [carbon fibre](/source/Carbon_fibre) based construction material. The company had a production plant in [Varna, Bulgaria](/source/Varna,_Bulgaria). Media reported about a floating, pyramid shaped *Hotel Maya* being constructed there for deployment in [Cancún](/source/Canc%C3%BAn), Mexico.

The OCCT process was originally developed for navy [stealth ships](/source/Stealth_ship) (including the [Visby class corvette](/source/Visby_class_corvette)) at [Kockums](/source/Kockums) shipyards in [Karlskrona](/source/Karlskrona), Sweden, and treated as a military secret. After the innovation was declassified in 2002, Oceanic-Creations AB started to explore other markets. The OCCT process is not patented, but kept as a trade secret on a 20-year license from [Kockums](/source/Saab_Kockums).

The company went bankrupt in 2011.[1]
