2 / 6Repairs to hulls, pipelines and steel structures — without lifting the object or drydocking the vessel.
3 / 6Survey, engineering calculations and refloating of sunken vessels, boats and machinery.
4 / 6A complete diving spread with a certified crew — mobilised for your underwater engineering scope.

since 1992
The Port of Murmansk, Kola Bay, the Barents and White Seas — the full range of underwater work, without a break since 1992.
PKF Bolid LLC is a Murmansk company founded in 1992. For more than thirty years we have carried out underwater engineering in Kola Bay, the Barents Sea and across the Murmansk Region — from marine structures to the full scope of diving work at depths of up to 60 metres.
Our competence is confirmed by a Certificate of Recognition issued by the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping, and our divers are professionally trained — which is why we take on jobs that others turn down.
We work under contract with the leading companies of the Russian Arctic — Rosneft, NOVATEK, PhosAgro, Sevmash, AMNGR and RPK Nord.

Our own fleet of professional tools, diving gear and plant — everything needed for underwater engineering of any complexity, ready to mobilise. Nothing hired in, no waiting, no downtime.
Underwater inspection and video without putting a diver in the water — at depth and in hazardous areas.
Precise positioning of the diver and subsea objects, referenced to GPS/GLONASS coordinates.
Grinder, drill and rotary hammer with no surface hoses — the only such set in the region.
Disc saws, impact wrenches and metal shears for heavy underwater work.
Self-contained power for hydraulic tools right at the worksite.
Semi-automatic and manual arc underwater welding, and metal cutting at depths to 60 m.
Cavi-blaster: cleaning of hulls and structures with a high-pressure cavitation jet, leaving the paint coating undamaged.
Cut-off saw for cutting metal and concrete underwater.
Real shots from the job: dives and divers at work, our spread and vessels in Kola Bay and the Barents Sea.
Ports, ship repair and the oil and gas industry of the Russian Arctic trust us with the underwater side of their assets.
