Open Water Salvage

Open Water Salvage involves the retrieval of vessels, cargo, or property from navigable waters, whether they are abandoned, distressed, or legally recoverable. It includes coordinated efforts by specialized teams and equipment to prevent environmental hazards, minimize further damage, and restore or remove the items from the water. Salvage operations often follow legal procedures, such as securing rights to the property, and may involve insurance claims. The goal is to protect maritime safety, environment, and economic interests through careful planning and execution of the recovery process.
