Following feedback from license holders and ADAS schools, the Onshore Diver Medical Technician (DMT) certification timeframes have been extended.

It has been a busy year at ADAS engaging with stakeholders in Australia and the wider Asia Pacific region, and the Executive Director has also attended an international diving forum in the UK and a seminar in Norway.

There has been an incident of a dropped load during overboarding for subsea operations, and a report on positive changes at one IMCA contractor in the use of digital tools to give all crew and office personnel 24/7 access to essential safety and operational updates.

IMCA has released updated guidance documentation on a range of topics including spoolpiece metrology, biodiversity impacts and sustainability assessment tools.
