Diving system audits & ROV system audits - pepping up for peak performance

Safety first

Diving operations constitute a high-risk activity where the safety of personnel and protection of high-cost equipment is paramount. These operations involve the use of a wide range of dive and ROV systems and assorted equipment. From the safety standpoint, it is imperative to run these systems at peak operational efficiency. Hence it makes sense for both contractor and client to ensure optimal performance of these mission critical systems at all times. This is the key reason why diving system audits and equipment system audits take center stage. Auditing enables contractors to find and single out systems that are unsafe for operation. It is a specialised, highly meticulous activity that is carried out by qualified, well-trained professionals.
