There are not 14 oceans. There are only 4 some also consider the water around Antarctica to be an ocean, so that makes 5.

Some consider the Arctic, Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific to be the world's four oceans. Now, those that side with the number five can add the fifth ocean and call it the Southern Ocean or the Antarctic Ocean, thanks to the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO).

Last I checked, there are just 6 oceans: Pacific, North and South Atlantic, Indian, Arctic and Antarctic.

There are several large seas and gulfs, but I'm sure if you used an atlas you'd find them.
