Deep-sea salvage

Deep-sea salvage involves recovering valuable items from the ocean floor, often from shipwrecks or sunken vessels. This procedure can include retrieving cargo, artifacts, and even military equipment. Salvage operations typically require specialized technology such as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and advanced diving equipment, as well as the expertise of marine archaeologists and engineers. The process is governed by international laws to protect cultural heritage and the environment, making it a complex and often challenging endeavor. Successful deep-sea salvage can uncover historical treasures and provide insights into maritime history while potentially generating economic value.
