ADCI represents the commercial diving industry around the world. Founded in 1968, the Association of Diving Contractors International, Inc. was originally a small group of diving companies with a goal to create a nonprofit organization dedicated to the art and science of commercial diving. The establishment of industry-wide safe standards for commercial diving was the foundation upon which ADCI was built. Since then, ADCI has grown to encompass more than 600 member companies, furnishing services and/or support for the conduct of safe underwater operations from 41 nations throughout the world.
Mission:
- To promote the highest possible level of safety in the practice of commercial diving and underwater operations.
- To promote proper and adequate training and education for industry personnel.
- To foster open communication within the underwater industry.
- To hold accountable all members in adherence to the Consensus Standards for Commercial Diving and Underwater Operations.
