It is considered as one of the dangerous This type of job is mostly on oil jobs in the world and the diver should platforms, damaged ships and pipeline handle the underwater pressure. repair works.

  4. COMMERCIAL DIVING The job of an underwater welder is both challenging and exciting. choosing this speciality due to the increase in availability of work and the ever evolving techniques involved. The nature of work is basically on the elevated pressure water either in a dry or a wet environment.

  5. Types of commercial diving DRY HYPERBARIC WELDING WET UNDERWATER WELDING The dry hyperbaric welding takes place in a dry environment enclosed in a positive chamber filled with a gas mixture. The wet underwater welding takes place in the water and the divers are directly exposed to electric currents. The pressure inside the chamber is very high, so only divers who have the capability to work in that nature are considered. The electrodes used in this welding type are heavily insulated and it is switched off whenever not in use to prevent the electric shocks.

  6. DIFFICULTIES IN COMMERCIAL DIVING The electric shock happens a lot and it can be prevented by using professional welding equipments which are verified to work with underwater welding. Decompression sickness is the another risk faced due to direct expose to some ugly fatalities present inside the water. Another issue is the risk of increase in the level of hydrogen and oxygen which are deadly explosives.

  7. CONCLUSION To a potential underwater welder, it is important to get rid of the common misconceptions Despite these warnings, increasing number of divers are choosing this speciality due to the increase in availability of work and the ever evolving techniques involved. Many safety concerns are addressed before the welder begins work, the use of specially-designed water-proof electrodes for welding purposes ensures that you are not about to get grilled to death by electrocution.
