    Salvage

    Lost cargo, anchors, and propellers often require professional diving services for their recovery. In cases of sunken vessels, our marine exploration teams utilize advanced sonar scanning services to effectively locate and assess the situation. Additionally, lost gangways and tools can be retrieved through our specialized underwater salvage operations, while broken piles may need careful examination to determine the best recovery approach.

    Bottom Scanning & Sonar Service

    In specialized circumstances, a TowFish Scanner is essential for effective diving services. Designed specifically for search, survey, and recovery applications, this portable sonar is easily transported and deployed to scan large areas of the seabed. It efficiently identifies anomalies, wrecks, submerged automobiles, airplanes, boats, and even drowning victims. Underwater accident sites involving airplanes and automobiles can be surveyed and documented as part of recovery operations, making it a vital tool. Proven to be reliable and effective, our sonar scanning services are utilized in a variety of search and recovery efforts. Additionally, our side-scan sonar provides detailed underwater images and can be employed in any body of water, significantly enhancing underwater salvage operations.

    Proton 4 Magnetometer

    This tool can detect artifacts and even shipwrecks, whether they are exposed above the seafloor or completely buried, making it invaluable for diving services and marine exploration. Often used alongside sonar scanning services, which create maps by bouncing sound waves off seafloor features, we utilize the Proton 4 Marine Magnetometer to locate pipelines, undersea cables, and bridge foundations, as well as to identify critical sites for underwater salvage. The magnetometer is also effective for finding various smaller targets such as anchors, chains, cannons, and dredge heads. It proves essential when objects are buried in the seafloor and can't be located with sonar or video search systems. As a top-performing, microprocessor-driven marine magnetometer detection system, the Proton 4 is crucial for locating targets concealed in the sand. This high-performance system is the ultimate detector for ferrous metals like iron and steel.
