𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝗳𝗳 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝟯𝟬 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 – 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗬𝗼𝘂

After 30 unforgettable years in the commercial diving industry, I’ve made the decision to retire.

For over 25 of those years, Seatech has been far more than just a company to me. It’s been a reflection of what I’ve always valued: hard work, integrity, safety, and a commitment to doing things the right way—even when the conditions were anything but easy. Seatech has been my professional home, a source of immense pride, and a platform for building lasting relationships across the industry.

This journey has taken us to some truly extraordinary places. From supporting the world’s largest salvage operation—the Costa Concordia—to being featured on Sky News and even the subject of an eight-part documentary series, the experiences have been unforgettable. But above all, it’s the people—our incredible staff, clients, and partners—who have made it truly special.

Whether we worked together on a complex project, solved challenges as a team, or simply shared a few laughs along the way, I want to thank you. Your trust and support have meant the world to me.

Although we will be winding down, I remain fully committed to delivering on all current projects and responsibilities through to October 2025, with the same level of professionalism and dedication that has defined our work.

Retirement comes with mixed emotions. I’m excited for the next chapter, but I’ll deeply miss the work—and even more so, the people. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey and for helping make Seatech what it is.

In an extraordinary operation that demonstrated the skill and determination of Seatech's crew, one of our teams recently responded to a vessel with a suspected fouled drive system. However, upon initial inspection, the team discovered a much more complex issue—an HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicle) tyre that had become intensely entangled and wedged between the blade and nozzle, with a mere 10mm clearance for any intervention.

The challenge was immediately apparent as the team realized the tyre wasn’t just caught—it was twisted, doubled over, and firmly lodged in place. Seatech, with over 25 years of experience in removing such debris, was prepared for a difficult task. But this was no ordinary recovery.

As the operation progressed and residual material was cleared, the team uncovered an additional layer of obstacles: not only was more of the tyre revealed, but also scaffold tubing and wooden dunnage that had somehow become trapped in the mechanism. The complexity of the situation grew, but the team never faltered.
Employing a variety of underwater tools, including hydraulic saws, grinders, and even the infamous "jaws of life," the Seatech crew meticulously worked to clear the debris.

When Seatech Commercial Diving Services received the call to investigate suspected water ingress in a vessel’s hold, we knew the task ahead was formidable. The vessel, stretching a massive 290 meters, required a meticulous survey to identify the issue—a true “needle in the haystack” scenario.

Our team of expert divers approached the challenge with unwavering dedication and commitment. Every inch of the vessel was inspected with precision, and through our exhaustive efforts, we successfully pinpointed the source of the problem.

With class in attendance and the vessel operating on an extremely tight schedule, our workshop swiftly fabricated a temporary repair. This solution allowed the vessel to continue its journey without delay. To ensure a lasting fix, we coordinated with the vessel’s next European port for the implementation of a permanent repair.
At Seatech, we believe that with dedication, even the most daunting tasks can be overcome. Sometimes, you really can find the needle in the haystack.

This past week for the Seatech team. It all started with an emergency callout to a vessel suffering from a jammed propulsion system. Upon investigation, we quickly determined that not one but two large sheets of fendering material had been compressed into a 10mm aperture between the blade and shroud. This discovery revealed significant damage to the drive unit and blades, necessitating its removal and repair.

With our sister company, KGM Marine Services, arriving on-site to initiate the removal process. The next challenge was finding a suitable facility to carry out the necessary repairs. KGM Marine Services once again rose to the occasion, transporting the complete unit in a specialized frame fabricated by them to their facility. The unit was safely secured in their large warehouse on the outskirts of Southampton.

Specialist tooling was flown in from abroad to facilitate the repairs. Meanwhile, the KGM/Seatech team used their own transportation to deliver the blade unit to Glasgow for further repairs. Thanks to the dedicated efforts and seamless coordination between KGM Marine and Seatech Diving, the unit and vessel were returned to service in a timely manner.

This successful operation underscores the full commitment of KGM Marine Services and Seatech Diving to the marine industry. We are proud of our team’s quick response, technical expertise, and unwavering dedication to ensuring the highest standards of service and safety.
