Consensus Standards For Commercial Diving And Underwater Operations<\/a> from 2004 also addresses ROV safety issues. It advises caution and oversight to avoid harming divers, and lists some of the possible dangers that ROVs pose.<\/p>\n"When conducting ROV operations in the vicinity of diving operations certain hazards are introduced such as possible entanglement of umbilicals, physical contact, electrical hazards, and the fact that ROV propellers or thrusters can present a hazard. Close liaison between the ROV and Diving Supervisors is required," the report reads.<\/p>\n
Depending on the amount of time that divers spend around remotely operated equipment, and what work they are expected to do, an operation may be exposing dive crew to physical peril. As a countermeasure, it's a good idea for diving overseers and team managers to make sure that everyone involved is both familiar with best practices and protected in case of an accident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
