International Diving Industry Forum

About IDIF

The International Diving Industry Forum (IDIF) is an unincorporated voluntary arrangement of leading industry stakeholders meeting together in the shared interest of diving safety in the energy industry.

Our activities

The Forum was established in 2019 by three key industry stakeholders – the International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA); the Association of Diving Contractors International (ADCI); and the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP) – to reduce and control the risks associated with energy industry diving operations carried out anywhere in the world.
