Underwater Inspection

What is Underwater Inspection?

Underwater inspection involves the evaluation of submerged structures and assets using professional diving crews, remote operated vehicles (ROVs), and specialized imaging or testing tools. These inspections help identify damage, wear, corrosion, marine growth, or structural deficiencies that may compromise safety or functionality.

Whether you’re operating a shipping fleet or managing bridge infrastructure, underwater inspections are critical for maintaining regulatory compliance, extending asset lifespan, and preventing costly failures.

Why Underwater Inspection is Critical

Routine marine inspections are crucial to detect structural damage, corrosion, marine growth, and other underwater risks. Early identification of issues helps prevent costly repairs and ensures compliance with safety standards. Whether it’s for maintenance, insurance documentation, or emergency assessments, our underwater inspection services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each project.
