When diving the King Cruiser Wreck in Phuket on air we are always limited by our no-deco time. Although the wreck goes down to 30m the bulk of the dive is at 25m giving you a no-deco dive time of 29 minutes on the wreck. That same dive on Enriched Air Nitrox (EAN) 32% would give you 25% more dive time by giving you a no-deco limit of 40 minutes.

Diving Enriched Air Nitrox also means that as you have absorbed less nitrogen, you therefore have less to off-gas during you surface interval between dives. This can often extend your no-deco times for your second dive considerably as well.

Enriched Air Nitrox, once considered a technical divers gas, has been gaining popularity in recreational diving in Thailand over the last decade due to its ability through proper use to add time and conservatism to our dives. We now see it in use on the boat everyday in Phuket.
