This study suggests the improvement of ROK Navy salvage and rescue diving system. ROK Navy system experiences characteristic restrictions for the environmental loading. These restrictions are known to deteriorate the efficiency of Navy salvage and rescue diving activity. In this study, the measurements were suggested to improve the efficiency. To achieve the goal, a comprehensive analysis is conducted using the published data including those of USN, NOAA and IANTD. Based on the analysis, suggestions were made. The technical diving techniques may be introduced to improve current ROK Navy diving system in limited areas. By adopting that technique, decompression procedures and underwater operation can be improved.
