In order to better serve our Namibian clients, we have recently established Underwater Surveys Namibia (Pty) Ltd, based in Windhoek. This company will have the aim of serving the marine diamond mining, other Namibian mines, and general offshore survey industries more effectively.

The company and personnel have a wealth of experience and have been involved in the survey industry for the past 15 to 20 years and have established a very good reputation throughout Africa as a quality provider of survey services.
Of particular interest is a survey of the Zambezi River to determine the feasibility of transforming it into a river transport system for Malawi, Zambia and Mozambique.
