What Are Underwater Inspections?
Underwater inspections are a critical part of maintaining infrastructure that is submerged or partially submerged in water. These services are used to assess the condition, functionality, and safety of underwater assets, helping prevent structural failures, water quality issues, and costly downtime.
Inspections can be conducted by commercial divers or remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), depending on the application and environment. For Alberta’s diverse needs—from urban infrastructure to remote environmental systems—our hybrid approach ensures maximum coverage and safety.
Certified Expertise You Can Trust
All our dive operations in Alberta follow the latest CSA Z275.2 standards for occupational diving operations, ensuring that every inspection is conducted with absolute safety, accountability, and technical accuracy.
Our experienced dive teams are trained to operate in Alberta’s often challenging water conditions, including cold-water reservoirs, poor visibility environments, and isolated access sites. Each diver is certified in accordance with CSA and WorkSafe protocols and equipped with high-definition underwater cameras, audio communication, and 3-way CCTV for real-time review by clients and engineers.
Our Alberta Underwater Inspection Services Include:
-
Pipeline & Intake Inspections
Visual and sonar-based condition assessments for raw water supply lines, sanitary lines, storm mains, and intake structures. We provide comprehensive video reports, leak detection, sediment mapping, and more.
-
Reservoir & Tank Inspections
We inspect municipal reservoirs and storage tanks (potable and non-potable) without draining. Our ROV and diver teams document structural conditions, sediment buildup, coating delamination, and mechanical asset integrity.
-
Outfall & Diffuser Surveys
Inspection of outfalls and submerged discharge infrastructure, including diffuser ports, manifold structures, and protective cages. Ideal for wastewater treatment plants and industrial effluent systems.
-
Bridge & Caisson Inspections
Substructure evaluations of bridge footings, piers, and underwater caissons for transportation and civil engineering clients. We provide ultrasonic thickness testing, scour assessment, and corrosion evaluations.
-
Environmental & Habitat Surveys
Assessment of underwater ecosystems near industrial projects or protected areas, used for permitting, regulatory compliance, and conservation initiatives.
