This course provides the fundamentals of Nitrox diving, and introduces the diver to using Nitrox as an optimum breathing gas, ideally suited for diving within the 15 – 39 metre range, utilising EANx mixtures ranging from between 21%-40%, with emphasis on using ‘standard’ mixes of 32% & 36%, aimed at maximising bottom time, reducing or avoiding decompression penalty, and decreasing Surface Interval. The course is over 2 days and includes 2 dives.

Prerequisites: 15 years Old. Be enrolled on Ocean Diver/ Open Water Diver

Price: €150

A 3-4 day course that introduces the diver to using custom Nitrox mixes up to 100% O2 for accelerated decompression, using Nitrox Tables and computers. Dive planning, gas management and Oxygen servicing of equipment forms the content of the course, together with an intensive practical element, qualifying to 40 metres.The use of twinsets can also be introduced here. This course is the ‘springboard’ to the technical diving route, and includes 4 dives. It can be combined with the basic Nitrox course.

Prerequisites:15 years Old. Nitrox Diver. 25 Logged Dives

Price: €380 (€480 combined with basic nitrox course)

The DecompressionProcedures Diver course introduces the diver to advanced kit configuration, the use of twinsets and stages, computer-generated dives tables and dive planning using custom EANx mixes up to 1.6 bar PO2, for conducting staged decompression diving to 45m. The course is conducted over 4 days and includes 4 dives.

Prerequisites: 18 years Old. Advanced O/Water. Advanced Nitrox & 25 logged dives

Price: €390 (€700 combined with Advanced Nitrox Course)

The Helitrox course introduces the diver to the use of up to 20% helium in the breathing mix for reducing narcosis. Computer-generated dives tables and dive planning using custom EANx mixes up to 1.6 bar PO2, for conducting staged decompression diving to 45m are also introduced and developed. The course is conducted over 4 days and includes 4 dives.

Prerequisites:18 years Old. Advanced Nitrox and 50 logged dives

Price: €540 (€850 combined with Advanced Nitrox Course)

This course introduces the diver to the use of mixed gas (Trimix), enabling them to build on their depth experience to conduct planned dives to a maximum of 60 metres, using gas mixtures with a minimum 18% Oxygen. Advanced kit configuration, the use computer-generated dives tables, gas management and decompression systems form the basis of this course. The course is conducted over 4 days and includes a minimum of 6 dives.

Prerequisites: 18 years Old. Advanced Nitrox & Deco Procedures/Helitrox

Price: €950 (inclusive of gases, materials and equipment)

This course qualifies the diver in the use of Trimix gas mixtures with Hypoxic Oxygen levels of less than 20%, enabling them to conduct planned dives to a maximum depth of 100 metres. It builds on the divers previous knowledge, allowing progressive build-up of depth and technique. The course is conducted over 5 days and includes a minimum of 4 dives.

Prerequisites: Min. age 18 and Normoxic Trimix with 200 logged dives

Price: €POA

Each 1-day course is aimed at the diver who either intends to mix gas in a branch or dive centre, or wishes to expand their knowledge of the gas mixing process. Each course covers blending calculations and software, blending equipment, gases, Oxygen cleaning, hazards and risk assessment and is followed by a practical session calculating and blending various mixes.
