Diving Services Cofferdams We build and supply underwater airlifts and self-burying cofferdams. These are used for the de-burial of power cables and pipelines and access to subsea structures where excavations are subject to backfilling by sediments carried by the tidal flow.

Damage Assessment for Insurance We can locate, identify and inspect a vessel on the seabed to confirm its status and the status of its cargo.

Debris and Seabed Clearance Debris surveys and seabed clearance programmes as part of annual offshore subsea and IRM programmes and prior to rig moves, wellhead clearances and salvage operations. Inshore debris clearance works have also been carried out as part of our reservoir, harbour, river and civils inspection and maintenance programmes.

Harbour and Bridge Inspections Working for local councils, harbour boards and authorities, we carry out quayside inspections and remedial works, identifying areas of accelerated low-water corrosion in steel-piled quayside structures, poor areas of cathodic protection, physical damage and washouts, dangerous protrusions, damage to outfall and intake structures and riverbed scour.

Hull Cleaning Hull cleaning by divers to reduce water drag for a more productive passage avoids the costs and downtime of dry docks.

Marine Growth Inspection and Clearance Many forms of underwater and splash zone marine growth clearance equipment and procedures, ranging from simple hand scrapers, hand and rotary wire brushes, HP and LP water-jetting systems with needle and fan jets and low-pressure grit cleaning techniques.

Mooring Installation, Maintenance and Inspection Inspection, maintenance and replacement of subsea moorings. Fendercare Marine is one of the largest distributors of subsea mooring equipment, chains and buoys with access to bases located in 15 countries. We provide topside and subsea personnel, equipment and spares to keep your facility fully operational.

Offshore Platform Annual IRM Programmes Our team has carried out annual subsea Inspection, Repair and Maintenance programmes for many of the majors in the North Sea and Middle East. We supply the DSV, personnel and equipment to meet your requirements and the operational and project procedures to comply with your standards and government legislation, including IMCA guidelines and best industry practice.

We provide inspection and survey procedures and remedial techniques including pipeline de-burial and stabilisation. Services include the installation, inspection and repair of anti-scour systems, cathodic protection, CP continuity straps, anode beds, weight coats and coatings.

Pipeline Stabilisation Personnel and equipment for submarine pipeline stabilisation programmes, including assistance with pre and post rock-dump surveys, placement of sand bags and/or grout bags including subsea grouting operations, installation of anti-scour frond mats and concrete mats.

Pipeline Tie-Ins Our experienced dive teams and back-up personnel support submarine pipeline tie-ins, working in the air depth range and tidal waters of the Southern North Sea and West Africa.

Pipeline Metrology Alongside pipeline and riser tie-in services we offer a subsea metrology facility, including ‘Pup Piece’ design, manufacture and test.

Pre-Purchase Surveys Acting on behalf of purchasers we inspect and report on the condition of quayside piling and moorings prior to purchase. These surveys will include a GVI (General Visual Inspection) of the quayside above and below the water line including a video survey, ultrasonic wall thickness readings, cathodic protection surveys and scour assessments. The reports will consist of a written assessment accompanied with video footage and stills where appropriate.

Reservoir Inspections and Remedial Works We have many years experience in working alongside panel engineers in the UK for inspection, construction and remedial works to reservoirs. We have experience of project management and provision of underwater diving and ROV services in preparing reservoirs for 1,000 year flood defence.

Riser, ‘J’ and ‘I’ Tube Installation Design, installation and maintenance of ‘J’ and ‘I’ tubes based on experience in the tidal waters of the Southern North Sea and overseas.

Diving Services Salvage Recovery Salvage operations for the recovery of dropped objects from offshore rigs and platforms, assets from sunken vessels and aircraft.

SBM and SPM Inspection and Maintenance Technical support services, personnel and equipment for the topside and underwater inspection and maintenance of SBM’s and associated submarine pipelines. We are contracted to the UK Ministry of Defence for SBM inspection and maintenance in the Falkland Islands. We also subcontract personnel and equipment to other maintenance companies to assist them with their individual programmes.

SBM Change Outs We are also heavily involved with the planning and implementation of SBM change out, the most recent change out being that carried out in the Falkland Islands in 2010.

Scour Surveys and Remedial Works We offer a wealth of experience and knowledge in identifying and combating scour around fixed offshore structures, pipelines and jack-up rigs. Jack-up rig spud cans are very susceptible to scour. Remedial works include rock dumping, placement of sand bags, anti-scour mats and concrete mats.

Sewage Treatment Works Inspections Specialised underwater CCTV equipment for the monitoring of sediment movements within treatment works and dive teams for ongoing maintenance of water reservoirs including general inspection and maintenance and the design and installation of underwater reservoir aeration systems.

Underwater Inspection and Non Destructive Testing (NDT) A full range of underwater inspection and NDT services, carried out by approved operators and technicians, certified by recognised industrial bodies such as the Certification Scheme for Weld Inspection Personnel (CSWIP) and classification authorities. All inspection and NDT operations are covered by the operational and reporting procedures as laid down in the Fendercare Marine Inspection Manuals and Safety Management System.

Underwater Surveys We have managed many UWILD (Underwater in Lieu of Dry Docking) surveys in conjunction with major Certifying Authorities’ for vessel classifications. This allows, for example, ‘jack-up’ rigs in the North Sea to be inspected on location to prevent a costly break in production.

Vessel Inspection and Maintenance Underwater inspection and maintenance services for vessels afloat, covering hulls, propellers, rudders and thrusters. Our divers carry out underwater inspection, NDT and cleaning. Your onboard representative can observe and communicate with the diver via head-mounted closed circuit television cameras and diver surface audible communications. Still, audio and video records are made for review and analysis.

Weld Cleaning and Surface Preparation As with conventional surface inspection techniques, cleaning and preparation is of paramount importance. We provide underwater high-pressure water-jet cleaning equipment and low-pressure grit blasting equipment to clean the surface area to be inspected to comply with your procedures, typically cleaning to SA 2.5 prior to MPI, AFCM and CVI techniques.

Wellhead Surveys and Remedial Works We provide dive support vessels, air diving personnel and equipment to carry out inspection and remedial work programmes on subsea wellheads and associated wellhead protection frames in the North Sea and overseas. The scope of work encompasses wellhead cleaning, valve checks, component change outs (jumper leads, etc) maintenance and decommissioning.
