RV Seafoam
Services
RV SeaFoam delivers specialized offshore services, combining advanced vessel technology, precision positioning, and expert teams to support survey, research, dive, and recovery operations. With nationwide U.S. waters coverage and rapid mobilization, we provide reliable, compliant solutions for energy, environmental, archaeology, and commercial maritime projects.
Inspection Class ROV Services
Our Outland 1500 is a versatile, inspection-class Remotely Operated Vehicle designed for precision and reliability in challenging underwater environments. Compact yet powerful, it excels in tasks such as pipeline inspections, structural surveys, and marine research. Equipped with high-definition cameras, robust lighting, and advanced maneuverability, the Outland 1500 delivers clear visuals and accurate data even in low-visibility conditions. Its lightweight design allows for rapid deployment from small vessels, making it ideal for offshore and inshore operations where efficiency and safety are paramount.
Dive Operations
Our dive operations are built on precision, safety, and efficiency. Most dives are conducted on open-circuit systems using advanced nitrox procedures, allowing for extended bottom times and reduced decompression risk. This approach maximizes productivity during underwater surveys, inspections, and salvage operations while maintaining the highest safety standards. Whether working in shallow or deeper environments, our team combines technical expertise with proven protocols to deliver reliable results for complex marine projects.
Shipwreck Survey
Our shipwreck survey services begin with advanced detection techniques to accurately locate submerged vessels before any dive operations commence. We utilize side-scan sonar and magnetometer towing to identify anomalies on the seafloor, ensuring precise positioning of potential wreck sites. Once a target is confirmed, our skilled divers conduct detailed visual inspections and documentation, supported by high-definition imaging and proven safety protocols. This integrated approach delivers thorough mapping, condition assessments, and actionable data for historical research, salvage planning, or environmental studies—all executed with efficiency and reliability
Offshore Salvage & Recovery
RV SeaFoam specializes in offshore salvage and recovery of lost items on the seafloor, including treasure, historic artifacts, cargo, equipment, and other valuables. Our operations combine manned dives, heavy-lift capabilities, and precision positioning for efficient, compliant retrieval with full documentation.
Mapping the Depths with Magnetic Accuracy.
A magnetometer is a specialized instrument used to detect and measure variations in the Earth’s magnetic field. In dive operations, it helps locate submerged objects such as pipelines, shipwrecks, and other metallic structures by identifying magnetic anomalies. This tool is essential for underwater surveys, ensuring accurate mapping and efficient recovery or inspection tasks.
C-MAX Side-Scan Sonar
Our C-MAX side-scan sonar system delivers high-resolution imaging of the seafloor, making it an essential tool for locating and mapping submerged objects with precision. This technology provides detailed acoustic images that reveal wrecks, pipelines, and other anomalies, even in low-visibility conditions where traditional methods fall short. Ideal for pre-dive surveys and large-area searches, the C-MAX system ensures accurate positioning and comprehensive coverage, enabling efficient planning for salvage, inspection, or archaeological projects.
