Oxy-Arc Cutting — Precision Underwater Steel Removal

What is Oxy-Arc Cutting?

KCC carries out underwater oxy-arc cutting for removal of damaged steelwork, fouled lines, netting, and obstructions from vessel hulls, marine structures, and seabed. Oxy-arc cutting is the standard method for underwater steel cutting — fast, effective, and controllable.
