Latest - We have trained and provided the deep dive safety team for the Aqaba Super Falcon project. Team is diving on CCR to 100m.
Solution thinking at depth
Utilising breathing gases other than air custom made for each dive we can ensure that our divers thinking is not impaired at depth. This is achieved by using Trimixes with Helium added to the breathing gas to reduce nitrogen narcosis the effect that Cousteau termed rapture of the depths! When serious work needs to be completed at serious depths air is not a choice. Aqaba Diving Services blends its own gases at our base - the only trimix blending facility in Jordan.
Time management
To reduce the long decompression times that can occur on these deep working dives to manageable levels we use a technique known as acceleration decompression. This entails the diver breathing increasingly richer Oxygen mixes as he ascends. Proper gas planning and management using proven computer decompression software allows more frequent dives to be carried out by our divers thus speeding up the underwater work.
Underwater durations
For working dives in depths shallower than 40m Nitrox mixes are used for the divers at the working depth, this increases available working time on the bottom and reduces decompression requirements making an overall improvement in the efficiency of getting the underwater work completed to schedule.
Diver safety
All our divers are equipped with manifolded twin cylinders offering complete back up redundancy of life support systems, this increases safety and allows far greater times to be spent underwater completing the required work.
