Based in the bustling maritime hub of Chattogram, NISHI SALVAGE & DIVING operates as a specialized marine service provider focused on commercial diving, emergency salvage, and underwater engineering. Established to support the maritime logistics and infrastructure sectors within Bangladesh and the surrounding Bay of Bengal, the company has developed a reputation for executing complex subsea operations in challenging aquatic environments. It serves a diverse client base that includes international shipping lines, port authorities, and civil engineering firms engaged in large-scale marine construction projects.
The core of the company’s operational identity lies in its ability to deploy rapid-response diving teams to vessels and offshore structures. NISHI SALVAGE & DIVING is frequently engaged to perform critical ship husbandry tasks that maintain vessel seaworthiness without the need for dry-docking. These services include underwater hull cleaning, which is essential for optimizing fuel efficiency and reducing emissions, as well as propeller polishing and damage repairs. The company utilizes hydraulic brush karts and specialized cutting equipment to remove marine fouling and rectify structural issues while ships remain afloat at anchorage or in port.
Beyond routine maintenance, the company plays a significant role in the domain of marine casualty management. Its salvage teams are equipped to handle emergency situations such as vessel groundings, collisions, and wreck removal. These operations involve intricate project planning and the mobilization of assets to recover ships or cargo from distress situations in Bangladesh’s territorial waters. The company also supports the offshore energy sector and port infrastructure development, providing technical diving services for underwater welding, cutting, and non-destructive testing (NDT). Notably, its divers have contributed to major national infrastructure initiatives, performing high-precision underwater cutting and welding on steel pipe sheet piles for bridge foundation projects.
A central pillar of the company’s service delivery is its adherence to international maritime standards. NISHI SALVAGE & DIVING maintains approvals from numerous major classification societies, allowing it to conduct certified in-water surveys and underwater inspections in lieu of dry-docking. By combining technical proficiency with regulatory compliance, the company ensures that vessels calling at ports like Chattogram, Mongla, and Payra can meet their class requirements efficiently. Through these varied activities, the company functions as a critical enabler of maritime commerce, ensuring the structural integrity and operational continuity of naval assets across the region.
