“Our commitment to safety and proficiency is second to none”
UCS has the right resources - a professional and highly-trained dive team with the right equipment - to deliver a necessary service in offshore oil and gas; undertaking the jobs which are too small for the large underwater engineering companies yet too technical for the small underwater engineering companies.
UCS performs air and mixed gas and saturation (SAT) diving operations for the offshore sector with special focus on SBM and pipeline structures.
Our experiences in the offshore industry include the successful disconnection and reconnection of a SBM in deep water without the use of large crane barges or offshore vessels by the building and installing a special tank buoyancy system.
