[PSUBS-MAILIST] Commercial

[hank pronk]

Scott,
Put a manipulator on your sub and go salvage something that gets you on the news.  Free exposure, if you build it they will come.

 I know we have
 some retired commercial divers in psubs. What kind of work
 is out there for subs like ours realistically. I know in
 order to be effective we need tooling and manipulators. What
 are the benifits from the employer to use a sub rather that
 divers? Thanks,Scott

 Well, seeing as how there
 ain't too many subs out there, I would say what
 ever the traffic will bear.  You're right to
 estimate relative to similar activities.  You have to
 cover your basic operational costs, your time and what the
 sub itself could charge per hour or per job.  Degree of
 difficulty and also degree of risk
 involved. Brian

 Makes sence Brian. How do you know what to charge
 for stuff like that? Is there some kind of industry standard
 for per hour sub work or any kind of guidelines? Maybe a
 combination of diver and sub together with comms doing
 tasks?Thanks,Scott Waters

 Hi
 Scott,               
 I think they do pick up odd jobs here and there.  I
 know they do the fish count out here by the Channel Islands,
 which is some sort of government related survey of different
 species of fish around the oil platforms.  Seems like a
 highly unscientific and random kind of survey but I guess
 it's better that no survey.  You can see them on
 youtube counting fish from the sub.  I tried to get
 some info from those guys, since they used to be based a few
 miles from me, but they were not interested in sharing any
 information.   I think the best way is
 to create your own
 work. Brian

 How does delta
 oceanographics find work? Do they just wait for people to
 find their web site or just through their connections in the
 past? How does a group like that charge for
 work? This is a realm I know nothing about
 and would love to learn more
 about.Thanks,Scott
