Digital dive logs are entering the commercial diving industry with the primary goal of addressing the limitations of traditional paper-based logbooks and lessening the burden of administrative tasks. As the industry moves towards modernization, digitization becomes essential for enhancing data accuracy, operational efficiency, and safety. With over 30 years of experience in commercial diving and oil & gas, Anthony Greenwood will discuss how adopting digital dive logs can transform the way divers, contractors, trade associations, and the industry as a whole manage skills, competency and compliance.
By integrating secure data entry, traceability, digital signatures, offline capabilities, and utilizing sensors and data that already exist in the dive control room, digital dive logs ensure seamless and automated record-keeping. This not only significantly reduces manual data entry but also minimizes the risk of errors and lost records. As a focal point for 2025, this transition positions the commercial diving industry to stay ahead of increasing regulatory demands while promoting transparency and accountability. Embracing digital solutions now will empower divers, contractors and associations to make informed decisions, optimize operations, and build a more resilient and future-ready industry.
