Open the Job Finder and it points you to the job card, the scope of work, the forms and the equipment package.
The Diving Contractor Field Manual puts a commercial diving contractor's working knowledge between two covers:
• Complete surface-supplied spreads with price ranges, SCUBA, chambers, and mixed-gas and saturation overviews
• Twelve tooling packages; trucks, boats and containers; a master mobilization checklist
• Job cards for ship husbandry, class surveys, bridges, piers, dams, outfalls, pipelines, platforms, SPM buoys, wind and decommissioning
• Fifteen hazards and what must be in place for each
• 21 scopes of work to adapt, and 15 forms to copy
• A rate ladder, estimate worksheets, a complete model business plan, a glossary and conversions
It is not a procedure manual and never replaces your own. It is the reference that makes your own manual, your quotes and your jobs better.
Written by a commercial diver who worked as a tender, air, bell and saturation diver, hyperbaric technologist and ship-husbandry supervisor, then ran his own diving company.
