Diving in deep-sea environments is a job that requires skill, experience, and technically advanced subsea diving equipment. As offshore exploration locates new petroleum reserves in deeper, more remote waters, the obvious need for expertise and safety in all aspects of diving operations becomes more critically urgent. Working depths of 1,000 feet are increasingly more common offshore, and contracts requiring dives of 2,000 feet are predicted. Safe completion of assignments at these depths will require highly trained technical personnel, advanced deepwater systems capable of supporting a diving team for considerable lengths of time, and a general awareness of the operations and techniques involved in all commercial diving operations.

This training manual familiarizes nondiving personnel on an offshore rig with the procedures and equipment used in the diving world. The book is aimed at achieving a better understanding between the divers and the people who work the offshore rig. This is not a manual for diving personnel. 1982, 47 pp. ISBN 0-88698-073-9.
