No compromise on safety, integrity & honesty

Safety

At FSDS attention to quality, health, safety and environmental care is embedded in our procedures, in our actions, in our personnel development and in our relations with our clients and customers. We follow prevailing national legislation, we follow our own industry standards and guidelines and we follow our in-house procedures. In short, we follow the rules.

​​

Every project is different with its own characteristics and local conditions. Hence our tiered system for hazard identification, risk assessment and mitigation is always applied to ALL projects large or small. We will always invite our client’s site representatives to participate in and to review our project HAZID assessments.

​

Integrity

Personnel training and competence development is supported in our own staff, and always checked in our contractor staff. Our dive teams are IMCA certificated and all our equipment is rigorously checked and maintained to conform to IMCA D014 using the relevant IMCA audit document.

 

The status of all of our equipment is accessible to management and operations staff though accessing our electronic asset and planned maintenance system (NAMS).

​

Acceptance and certification by IACS (classification societies) requires full track record, employee certification and audited equipment maintenance facilities. FSDS is certified by all major IACS to provide diving and ROV inspection services using compliant equipment and personnel.

​

As a full contractor member of IMCA Diving & ROV divisions, we give our clients the confidence that our equipment and personnel are safe, competent, correct and fit for purpose.

​​

Assurance

Our procedures and processes have been independently certified as meeting
ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018.

​

Our Integrated Management System (IMS) describes how we operationalize these standards within FSDS, in terms of quality management, environmental management and occupational health and safety.

​

Our Diving, HSE and Quality Management Systems have been audited and approved directly by our clients, who are IOGP members and Tier 1 Contractors. The effectiveness of our systems and procedures has been demonstrated over the past 25 years, throughout the Caspian Sea, the Arabian Gulf and Russian Far East.​​

This is how we work safely, with integrity and with assurance.
