A Colombian Navy diver simulates a hot tap procedure used for underwater salvage
in Cartagena, Colombia, Sept. 4, 2018, during a subject matter expert exchange with
U.S. Navy divers assigned to Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit (MDSU) 2, as part of
Southern Partnership Station 2018. Hot tapping enables access to tanks and voids
on sunken vessels to allow for the safe removal of hazardous materials. Southern
Partnership Station is a U.S. Southern Command-sponsored and U.S. Naval Forces
Southern Command/U.S. 4th Fleet-conducted annual deployment focused on subject
matter expert exchanges and building partner capacity in a variety of disciplines
including medicine, construction and dive operations in the Caribbean, Central and
South America. (U.S. Army photo by Pfc. James Whitaker)
