<p>Salvage operations involve a series of coordinated efforts and specialized tasks to recover assets, clean up hazardous materials, or restore functionality to underwater structures. The specific steps and procedures can vary depending on the nature of the salvage operation, but here are some common things typically involved:</p>
<h3> Survey of External and Internal Damage </h3>

<p>The survey of external and internal damage provides essential information for salvage teams, engineers, and stakeholders involved in the salvage operation. It helps in understanding the extent of the damage, identifying potential risks and hazards, and developing effective strategies for asset recovery and repair.</p>
<p>A detailed survey is conducted to provide information on the condition of the vessel. Deployed to visually inspect the external surfaces of the asset, they carefully examine the areas of the hull or structure that are in contact with the seafloor. This involves examining the condition of the hull, identifying signs of damage such as scrapes, dents, or deformations, and documenting their location and extent. </p>
<p>If access is possible, salvage divers may enter the interior of the asset to conduct an internal damage survey. They examine the structure from the inside, looking for signs of tears, cracks, or other structural damage. </p>
<p>Deep Trekker ROVs can also be a perfect complement to this step of the process. With advanced 4K cameras, imaging sonar capabilities, and high precision maneuverability with vectored thrusters, access to confined spaces and difficult to reach, or dangerous areas become possible to explore, while also capturing highly detailed data for further analysis. </p>
<h3> How ROVs Can Assist With Patching And Repairing </h3>

<p>Patching in salvage operations involves the repair and sealing of damaged areas on an asset or vessel, particularly to address issues such as a damaged hull to prevent further flooding. Patching is an essential step in salvage operations as it addresses immediate concerns related to leaks and openings in the damaged asset. It requires skilled salvage divers with expertise in underwater welding, precision measurements, and the use of specialized patching materials. By effectively patching damaged areas, salvage teams can control leaks and ensure the stability and integrity of the asset during subsequent stages of the salvage operation.</p>
<h3> Streamlined Documentation with ROVs</h3>
