SUBMERSIBLE TRANSPORT CANISTER AND METHODS FOR THE USE THEREOF

摘要

Embodiments of a submersible transport canister, and embodiments of using a submersible transport canister, are provided. In one embodiment, the submersible transport canister includes a pressure vessel having a storage cavity configured to store at least one item therein, a cap movable to a closed position wherein the cap sealingly engages the pressure vessel, and a diver-adjustable buoyancy system configured to be coupled to the pressure vessel. When coupled to the pressure vessel, the diver-adjustable buoyancy system is configured to displace a volume of water to achieve a substantially neutral buoyancy during underwater transport of the item within the submersible transport canister.
