Wire sawing underwater

The marine contractor offers wire sawing as an advanced and efficient method for cutting concrete, stone, and steel underwater. This technique uses a diamond wire that rotates at high speed, providing precise cuts with minimal vibration and stress on the structure. The method is ideal for demanding projects where traditional cutting tools fall short.

Advantages of wire sawing:

  • High precision – suitable for complex shapes and large dimensions.
  • Minimal vibration – reduces the risk of damage to surrounding structures.
  • Flexibility – can be used on concrete, steel, and stone, even in tight or inaccessible areas.
  • Depth and environment – works at great depths and in challenging marine environments.

Typical applications:

  • Removal of quay fronts and foundations.
  • Cutting of pipes and underwater structures.
  • Adaptation and modification of structures in harbours and offshore installations.

Our experienced divers and operators ensure safe and efficient execution with a focus on safety, quality, and documentation. We deliver solutions that meet both technical requirements and environmental considerations.
