Easily the most powerful energy company in the world prior to the Great War, Poseidon Energy was an umbrella corporation with its fingers in virtually all known forms of renewable and non-renewable power sources, so long as they remained profitable.
Though most of the public knew that Poseidon was a huge corporation and never particularly trusted it, very few people were aware that several companies owned by Poseidon were given lucrative defense contracts by the U.S. government – or rather, by Enclave members working as lobbyists to gain those contracts (it seems that some of the Enclave's members were employed by Poseidon as lobbyists). Most of Poseidon’s most promising projects never reached their final stages.
Though technically not part of the Enclave, many powerful corporations benefited from the Enclave’s actions and their research facilities were protected during the atomic firestorm of 2077. Poseidon Energy was chief among these, as its facilities continue to be used by the broken remnants of the Enclave following the Chosen One’s assassination of the Enclave's President and the destruction of their Oil Rig headquarters off of the Pacific coast of California in 2242.

Poseidon Energy was not a single, monolithic company, but was instead a cartel of various Poseidon-owned corporations controlling various aspects of the global energy market... and cooperating with the Enclave. To facilitate communications (and terminate unlikely hostilities), the PoseidoNet date system provided instantaneous communication between various Poseidon locations.
Easily the most recognizable of the companies operating under the Poseidon name, PO did not limit itself only to the excavation and pumping of petroleum - it also operated a number of nuclear power plants, one of which was the Reactor No. 5 in Gecko. Major installations belonging to this corporation were the Oil Rig eventually used as the headquarters of the Enclave on the Pacific Ocean and the Navarro refinery on the Pacific coast of California.
Interestingly, Poseidon Oil seems to be a company that had close ties to the Enclave, with it's facilities housing the primary Enclave base after the Great War and Navarro easily converted (or even already existing) into an Enclave military outpost. Also, together with the Enclave, Poseidon helped finance Senator Todd Peterson's secret bunker.
Poseidon Gasoline was a company, that before the energy crisis that began in the mid-twenty-first century, apparently operated some network of refueling stations, advertised with road maps for drivers.

Prometheus Coal was probably a coal mines operator. At least it opened a coal mine called the Eagle's Rock mine complex in central Utah in 2039. It was eventually sold in 2066 to the U.S. government to serve as a radioactive waste dump.
Due to certain ties to Agricola robot, it is possible that Poseidon took part in the Grand Canyon uranium mining business. It is also likely that numerous other companies operated under the umbrella of Poseidon Energy.

Very few people were aware that several companies owned by Poseidon were given lucrative defense contracts by the U.S. government – or rather, by Enclave members working as lobbyists to gain those contracts. Many of Poseidon’s most promising projects never reached their final stages. In their paranoid dreams of a coup against the real U.S. government, the Enclave kept their special toys out of the American military's knowledge until it was too late to actually use them.
After the Great War, Poseidon no longer existed as a real force in the post-atomic world. However, technology scavengers like the Brotherhood of Steel and the Enclave still tried in vain to decipher Poseidon's plans and either confiscate this technology or turn them into working models, respectively.

There were several unfinished Enclave/Poseidon projects that science-oriented characters could complete (the story behind the projects was planned to help tie the Enclave to Poseidon).
It is not certain if the CRB-S or Cerberus projects - 3 giant robotic dogs operated by the Denver Police Department, were developed by Poseidon.
Poseidon was the Greek god of the sea as well as horses and earthquakes. His weapon and symbol is the trident. Poseidon's projects often used codenames drawn from Greek mythology:
Poseidon Industries is the name of a corporation frequently found in the works of Masamune Shirow, such as Ghost in the Shell, Appleseed, and Dominion: Tank Police.
