Project Planning
We define the underwater task, expected outcome and project requirements before a diving contractor is selected.
Independent guidance grounded in more than fifty years of military and commercial diving experience.
We provide services to regulators, project owners, prime contractors, and safety professionals who need a clear understanding of the hazards present in occupational diving work.
ODRM provides the independent diving safety expertise needed to protect people, projects and organizations. Decisions made before a diver enters the water determine whether the diver comes home. We exist to assist with the best decisions to reduce the risk to an acceptable level.

We define the underwater task, expected outcome and project requirements before a diving contractor is selected.
We identify worksite hazards and recommend controls to reduce risk to an acceptable level.
We assess the diving contractor’s training, experience, equipment and ability to complete the work safely.
We independently review the contractor’s dive plan to confirm it addresses the actual task, site conditions and identified hazards.
When required, ODRM monitors the project to confirm that the approved plan and agreed safety controls are being followed.
Following completion, we review the operation and provide a final report identifying outcomes, concerns and recommendations for future work.
