Rescue Beneath the Surface

摘要

From accidents such as HMS Thetis in 1939, the Kursk in 2000 and many more besides, to wartime episodes involving damage or destruction to submarines of all sides by enemy action, submariners live dangerous lives and most navies have long since recognised the need for effective escape and rescue procedures, techniques, and equipment. Today, submarine rescue has become a highly skilled, technologically impressive arena, led by just a handful of organisations and specialist companies such as Forum Energy Technologies (FET), JFD, and Oceaneering, with unprecedented, technologically advanced skillsets.
