As the core business of Connors Diving Services has continued
to be commercial diving, we have been responding for vessel
repairs since inception. Whether due to ice damage, groundings
or regular maintenance, we have the personnel, equipment
and expertise to take care of all your ship maintenance
requirements. At anchor or alongside, our company performs
quality service to the customer’s satisfaction. Some
of these services include:
Underwater Hull Cleaning
Using 2 dual brush hydraulic scrubbers and high-pressure
washers, we can perform quality hull cleaning night
or day to assure maximum vessel performance and fuel
savings. All hull cleanings may be accompanied with
before and after digital photography complete with written
reports upon request.
Underwater Welding
Cracked or damaged shell plates and “A”
frames may be wet welded while the vessel remains afloat,
eliminating the need for expensive docking of the vessel.
Connors Diving Services uses the CWB and AWS D3.6 all
position class ”B” welding standard.
Propeller Repairs
Damaged propellers can be straightened, cropped or replaced,
as the situation requires, eliminating the need for
dry-docking the vessel.
Intakes and Discharges
Installation of hull aperture blanks enables sea valve
repair and replacement to the benefit of the vessels
integrity.
Wear down Calibration
Poker gauge readings of tail shaft wear down and rudder
pintle clearance measurements provide accurate assessments
of propulsion and steering gear overall condition.
Dry Box Welding
Connors Diving Services can fabricate any size or
shape dry box to assist in-water ship repairs.
Cathodic Protection
Anodes can be supplied and installed by underwater welding
techniques.
Propeller Polishing
Using single brush scrubbers, propellers can be cleaned
polished, providing less drag and better performance.
