Reviews hyperbaric chambers, life support systems, gas supply systems, and monitoring equipment.
Ensures compliance with protocols for maintaining constant environmental conditions and emergency procedures during extended dives.
Documentation: Review maintenance records, certifications, and operational logs.
Equipment Integrity: Verify the condition, testing, and calibration of critical components.
Personnel Competence: Assess training, certifications, and readiness of the diving team.
Compliance: Ensure adherence to standards such as IMCA, ADCI, or other regulatory bodies.
