History
A Heritage of Underwater Excellence
In 1979, Tim Beaver, John Graham, and a small group of professional divers banded together to provide diving services, ship husbandry, marine construction, small vessel salvage, and spill response services in the Puget Sound region. Their philosophy was simple: provide outstanding service to the maritime community while maintaining the highest level of safety.
Global Diving & Salvage, Inc. was incorporated in 1980. The company built a reputation for its tenacious approach to every job. Each task was treated as the most important project on the books, from simple vessel surveys to fully managed wreck removals.
Global became known for having crews available any time of day or night. “We never wanted to tell a customer that we couldn’t do something,” says Graham. “When other companies did that, their customers came looking to us and we never let them down.” As a result, Global became known as the one to call for any underwater task – anytime, anywhere.
Today, Beaver and Graham are the two remaining owners. Both continue to serve on the Board of Directors. Their original philosophy still prevails and is visible in the passion and professionalism on every Global job site across the globe.
