Professional underwater construction services play an essential role in a wide range of industries in Mississippi and other states like Texas, California, Louisiana, and the Gulf Coast region. In this comprehensive guide from UESI Louisiana, we’ll show you the top 3 industries where marine construction and aquatic infrastructure development are crucial. These industries include tourism, nuclear power, and environmental protection services. Keep reading to discover why these services are so important in each sector!
Tourism and Marine Infrastructure Development for Parks
Over the past 40 years, UESI Louisiana has designed specialized marine construction services for the development of tourist zones, aquariums, and theme park infrastructure. Underwater construction services play a critical role in developing these spaces, as they require complex and highly specialized facilities. The specific needs of these environments and the high safety standards demand an experienced and specialized contractor.
Aquariums
Aquariums often operate with the same systems, assets, and operational equipment found in major industrial facilities, requiring routine maintenance, major rehabilitations, or even new construction. However, they are unique in that much of their infrastructure is visible to guests, and in many cases, guests interact with it directly. Adding to the challenge, some parks and aquariums host large animals and marine life. Despite these complexities, owners expect all work to be done while attractions remain open, without endangering or inconveniencing guests or wildlife. UESI Louisiana has over 40 years of experience providing services for aquariums and theme parks!
Underwater Construction for Nuclear Energy
UESI Louisiana provides engineering, consulting, inspection, maintenance, and construction services to clients in the nuclear industry worldwide. Our services cover assets located both above and below water, supporting commercial nuclear plants, research facilities, government sites, and decommissioning plants. We are fully equipped to respond quickly to emergent work, execute large-scale projects, and manage long-term service contracts.
Nuclear Decommissioning
UESI is the leading global provider of underwater services to both commercial and government sectors of the nuclear industry. We understand that owners and operators expect service providers to help achieve goals, improve and maintain safety, reduce costs, and facilitate regulatory compliance. Decommissioning is a two-part process: deactivation to stabilize each facility and reduce maintenance costs, and decommissioning when it becomes technically and financially appropriate. Facilities requiring deactivation and decommissioning (D&D) may include production reactors, research reactors, chemical processing buildings, uranium, plutonium, and tritium production facilities, as well as gaseous diffusion plants. Divers can play a key role in both stages.
Underwater Environmental Protection Services
UESI Louisiana offers a wide range of environmental support services to environmental firms and local, state, and federal agencies. Our services cover both above-water and underwater operations. Common services include:
- Dredging of contaminated or hazardous materials
- Installation of erosion control measures
- Removal of derelict vessels
- Artificial reef construction and restoration
- Support for mangrove preservation, hydrographic surveys, and biological monitoring
