The Project Management team has recent and relevant experience in importing and operating large construction vessels and self-elevating platforms for a wide variety of complex tasks including topside installations, cable lay, new construction, ROV, Saturation, Air and Nitrox Diving services.

Shelf Subsea have embraced technology in a deliberate effort to ensure our clients have opportunities to realise increased productivity over traditional methods, this includes the SLS rebreather for our Saturation System which provide for longer excursion distances and Nitrox Generating machines for our Air Systems that reduce manning levels offshore and at the same time increase diver safety and in water productivity.
