Lastly, we have underwater pipe trackers to allow the dive crew to follow buried pipe, as well as push and crawler cameras for internal pipe inspections.
We have installed all types of pipe including carbon steel and ductile iron for water intakes, outfalls, and river crossings, and have the equipment necessary to perform these large scale projects.
Inspection Services
Our highly qualified inspectors and technicians use site-specific procedures, as well as innovative practices to assess current conditions.

IDS can also provide an extensive pipeline inspection report including drawings and hydrographic soundings encountered. Any underwater video footage obtained during the inspection can also be provided to the client.
