European Hyperbaric Technical Day

IMCA is presenting at a forthcoming major French diving event co-organised by SNETI, the French union of underwater contractors, and OPBTT, the Professional Organisation for the Safety of Building and Public Works.

The European Hyperbaric Technical Day takes place on Thursday 29 June 2023 at the Centre de Formation Phoenix, Pleumeur-Bodou, Brittany, France.

Bringing together commercial diving experts, including representatives from the offshore oil and gas and renewable energy sectors, the event will explore the importance of diving projects in France. It will also consider a range of safety, health, and training issues relevant to the wider European professional diving community.

IMCA’s Peter Sieniewicz (IMCA Diving Consultant) will speak on international approaches to offshore diving and the future of the offshore diving sector in relation to marine renewable energy, stressing the importance of IMCA D 014, the IMCA International Code of Practice for Offshore Diving.

Attendance is free for this event. Find out more in the flyer below, or sign-up at the SNETI website.

Technical Adviser – Diving

Peter joined IMCA’s Diving Team in April 2012, following 14 years at the Health and Safety Executive (UK HSE) as a Principle Inspector. Having started as an inspector with HSE, Peter subsequently managed the Southern Diving Inspection Team, looking after the health and safety of divers through inspection and investigation in both the offshore and onshore sectors of diving.

Peter began his diving career in Canada, moving to England in the late 70s. Initially working in Plymouth at a diver training school, his career took him to the commercial sector, which included a research post at University College London and then to Rockwater as the ROV & Inspection Services Manager, which broadened his offshore construction knowledge. Peter has had input to many facets of the diving industry including research, legislation, diver training and project management reinforced throughout by diver safety.

He holds a BA in Technology (Open) and a Post Graduate Diploma and MSc in Occupational Health and Safety (Aston).
