The ninth day of the training for the training of divers

Training on the training of divers of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Republic of Kazakhstan continues on the basis of the rescue station in Priozersk, Karaganda region.

On the ninth day of the training, the divers worked out tasks for conducting diving operations in ventilated diving equipment (diving suit).

It was not unimportant not only to directly carry out work under water, but also to prepare and ensure the descent in ventilated equipment. The divers learned how to organize a wired connection, provide air supply using a compressor, and properly put on and take off a diving suit. Emergency situations with the diver and his actions in these cases were also worked out.

All tasks were performed in an open reservoir on Lake Balkhash, which allowed the trainees to work out actions at a distance of 50 m from the shore and at a depth of more than 6 m. Visibility under water did not exceed 0.3 m.

Divers have mastered the skills of using hydrodynamic tools for underwater technical work.

During the classes, the technology of destruction of structures with the help of a hydraulic hammer was practiced.

An equally important issue was the interaction of all the actors of the diving stations and the support staff. Under the supervision of instructors, signals and commands were transmitted between the working and providing divers, the head of diving descents and the instrument operator.

The next task of the students was to search for the body of the conditional deceased in a given square of the water area. In conditions of almost zero visibility, the divers worked out various ways to search for and retrieve the deceased from the water. At the same time, a small wave of water made the task more difficult for the students.

In general, despite the intense heat and heat, the divers completed their training tasks, and the instructors conducted an analysis of each task.

In the future, it is planned to continue working out the skills of searching, using ventilated diving equipment. At the end of the training, all divers will have to pass a test on the studied topics.
