wreck removal techniques
Wreck removal involves methods to safely and efficiently eliminate sunken or stranded ships. Techniques include righting and towing the vessel to a repair yard, removing fuel and hazardous materials first, then using cranes, dredging, or underwater cutting to break the wreck into manageable pieces. Sometimes, controlled explosions are used to break the vessel apart. Another method involves sealing or covering the wreck to prevent pollution. The goal is to minimize environmental impact, restore navigation safety, and recover valuable materials, all while working carefully to protect marine ecosystems and comply with regulations.
