Complete Diving Services to Maritime Civil Engineering:

  • Survey - Inspection Reports with Full High Definition CCTV (Diver's head camera + light + lazer pointer); R.O.V. with acoustic positioning "SeaTrack" (for transcription on marine chart or Google Earth picture); DRONE for aerial views.
  • Surface and Underwater Drilling & Blasting in sensitive areas by means of Non-Detonating safety cartridge (no shock wave and almost no vibration, resulting in no impact on the environment and maritime infrastructures): Rock Breaking, Shaft Sinking, Pier/footing Excavation, Trenching for pipelines. For steel cutting (e.g. Pier piles with or without concrete inside, Shipwrecks difficult access, etc.) we use SEMTEX RAZOR Flexible Linear Shaped Charge (FLSC) to produce a linear cutting action upon detonation; when a reliable and fast cut is required, our FLSC is used to sever a multitude of materials.
  • Sea bed anchoring (MantaRay and Helical Anchors) for vessel's mooring, Solar panels anchorage, etc.
