World Salvage Organization

The World Salvage Organization (WSO) is a global body dedicated to coordinating and promoting safe, efficient recovery of shipwrecks, cargo, and maritime debris. It works with maritime authorities, industry professionals, and environmental groups to establish best practices, improve salvage techniques, and ensure ocean and coastal safety. The WSO also aims to minimize environmental impact during salvage operations, protect maritime heritage, and support disaster response efforts. Its role is crucial in managing the complex processes involved in recovering valuable or hazardous materials from the sea, fostering collaboration, and maintaining maritime safety standards worldwide.
