Underwater Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD)

Underwater Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) involves the identification, assessment, and neutralization of explosive devices in underwater environments, such as oceans or rivers. EOD technicians, often part of military or specialized teams, use advanced equipment and techniques to safely handle underwater mines, bombs, or improvised explosive devices (IEDs) that pose risks to naval operations and maritime safety. Their work is crucial for ensuring safe navigation, protecting underwater infrastructure, and mitigating threats during military operations or in response to sabotage. This highly skilled field combines diving expertise with bomb disposal knowledge to enhance security in underwater warfare.
