Portable hyperbaric rescue facility
Our IMCA compliant 18-man Portable Hyperbaric Reception Facility (HRF) can support diving operations across the whole of the North Sea.
Suitable for accommodating divers evacuated from a diving system by means of a Self Propelled Hyperbaric Lifeboat (SPHL) or Hyperbaric Rescue Chamber (HRC), this Portable HRF provides a practical hyperbaric rescue solution for operators working in remote locations.
The HRF was designed and manufactured by JFD. DDC1 (12.17m (L)) is a twin lock skid mounted and enclosed saturation living chamber consisting of the main lock (ML) and entry lock (EL). DDC1 has a depth capacity of 300m and allows habitation for up to 18 rescued divers during decompression and a medical attendant if required.
