Osiris now delivers integrated Nitrox diving services for subsea operations

Osiris, part of James Fisher and Sons plc, is pleased to announce successful receipt of its new Bauer Enriched Air Nitrox diving system. Significantly increasing its diving capability, Osiris’s strategy of continuous improvement means it can now deliver integrated Nitrox diving services with highly trained nitrox divers, enabling increased operational efficiency for its customers.

Reducing operational downtime

The state-of-the-art system offers a safe and cost-effective solution by enabling longer dive times with a potential reduction in the required number of divers onsite as well creating the potential to reduce operational downtime, as the system is capable of blending gas and refilling cylinders onsite.

The arrival of the Enriched Air Nitrox system further enhances Osiris’s diving capabilities and demonstrates its commitment to delivering world-class standards in everything they do. Osiris was also the first UK based company to undertake a commercial Nitrox diver training course at The Underwater Centre in April 2014.

Health and safety underpinning all subsea operations

Aiden West, Managing Director of Osiris, explains: “With health and safety underpinning all offshore subsea operations, being the first commercial diving company based in the UK to undertake this course, along with a fully operating Enriched Air Nitrox system, only goes to prove our reputation as an innovative subsea service provider, which is highlighted by our impressive safety record.”

Available immediately for projects in the global offshore renewable and oil and gas industries, the system is fully IMCA compliant and operates to the highest standard, as required in the challenging subsea environment.
