About Underwater Engineering Services
Since 1984, UESI has defined what clients should expect when they search about underwater engineering services, blending disciplined engineering with proven commercial diving capabilities to solve complex marine challenges across the USA. We specialize in marine construction, underwater inspections, and facilities development for owners who require airtight documentation, reliable schedules and strict adherence to regulations. Our history began supporting power plant immersion areas and expanded into civil marine contracting, restoration, and complex infrastructure projects. We work closely with owners to define risk, scope and practical solutions that meet regulatory demands and protect assets. We prioritize transparent communication with stakeholders and deliver detailed records that support compliance, handover, and future planning.
Discover How We Operate
Our approach to underwater engineering services begins with a structured site assessment that establishes clear baselines and a shared understanding of risk. We perform dimensional surveys and condition evaluations, then translate those findings into constructible plans that prioritize maintainability, access, and lifecycle cost. Mobilization plans align dive teams with topside crews and support vessels so lifts, rigging, and material handling proceed with minimal downtime. We document procedures, verify equipment readiness, and maintain open communications so leaders can adapt to changing conditions without sacrificing quality. Our teams integrate diving and engineering to reduce uncertainty.

Inspection And Survey Methodologies
As a commercial diving engineering firm, we emphasize inspection protocols that deliver repeatable, verifiable data. Divers collect dimensional surveys, nondestructive testing results and high definition video that engineers convert into actionable designs. Reports include annotated images, dimensional drawings and clear recommendations that support permitting, procurement, and budgeting. This level of detail shortens design cycles and reduces change orders, helping owners make timely repair decisions. Field verification enables owners to prioritize repairs and to allocate budget with confidence based on objective findings. This level of detail shortens design cycles and reduces change orders.
Why Marine Construction Industry Experts Matter
Selecting marine construction industry experts matters because real world installation knowledge prevents design intent from failing in the field. Our multidisciplinary crews combine marine trades, engineering and construction management to sequence work that respects operational windows and environmental constraints. We have rehabilitated intakes, repaired seawalls and rebuilt outfalls for energy, municipal and port clients, and our institutional knowledge anticipates scour, material compatibility and maintenance access. Review the industries we serve to see how vertical experience supports better approaches and lifecycle value. Experience drives better installation choices and longer service life.

Our Business And Commitment to Our Customers
Our commitment to safety is embedded in written programs, comprehensive training and rigorous equipment maintenance that meet expectations for high risk work. We hold required licenses and certifications for each scope, perform job hazard analyses and run daily briefings to confirm controls and contingencies. Redundant communications and emergency response capabilities are standard on every deployment and our supervisors maintain inspection records to demonstrate readiness. Clients can review the details of our formal procedures in our public safety program to understand training, maintenance and emergency protocols that support operations. Safety is the operating system of every dive and construction task.
Lifecycle Support And Maintenance
Long term performance depends on quality execution followed by proactive maintenance and planned monitoring, and we provide lifecycle support that keeps assets reliable. After construction we deliver scheduled inspections, condition based maintenance recommendations and upgrade planning that extend service life and reduce unplanned outages. Our reports help owners prioritize interventions and budget for replacements while meeting regulatory reporting needs. Explore our full range of services to see how integrated delivery supports ongoing reliability and simplified procurement for owners, and rely on a single accountable partner for coordination.
