General FAQs

What protocols define Marine Acquisitions' underwater recovery?

We operate under strict adherence to federal maritime preservation laws and the UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage, ensuring all recovery efforts align with historical mandates. Archaeological findings from any project we work on remains our top priority.

What project is Marine Acquisitions working on currently?

Marine Acquisitions is currently involved in multiple projects both domestically and abroad. We will continue to share our progress on the blog page and also through social media accounts. When appropriate, we will work with local news stations to cover historically significant finds.

How are historical shipwrecks protected during survey work?

Our team employs non-invasive magnetometry and high-resolution sonar to locate vessels, ensuring significant sites remain undisturbed unless a full recovery and desalination program is officially initiated. If such a program is initiated, our recovery efforts go hand in hand with archaeological efforts to preserve artifacts and document their placement in the wreck.

What technical capabilities are used for maritime recovery?

We specialize in mapping technologies such as magnetometry and sonar, as well as advanced recovery tools including lift bags and utilization of underwater power tools by our specially trained divers.

How can government agencies initiate a survey contract?

Potential partners can contact our headquarters through our dedicated inquiry portal to discuss site specifications, technological requirements, and large-scale maritime mission objectives.
