Good News / Bad News...
I contacted the company that fills fire dept scba bottles today. He's been at his main shop in Ghana. He claims he can fill scuba bottles in Monrovia. He doesn't have bottles, just a compressor. I've not seen his compressor set up but would assume it's not a filtered or content tested source. That said, we've not had a problem with air quality when the fire department uses it - no odor/taste/breathing issues. I'll sent you a pm with contact information today.
Thanks for the info and the heads up on some of the issues. I'll email you to touch base with some more info. The proposal has now turned into 2 jobs. Diving on the Gabriel Tucker Bridge and St. Paul River bridge; and now diving at the Mt. Coffee Hydro power plant.
Hope we get to go. I'm planning to bring compressor and all other support equipment to be fully self sufficient. However, if that's not needed then that equates to cost savings.
Thanks again for your help. If we make it there, we should plan a recreational dive. I'll have the gear, you could line up the dive site. Something to think about.

Ok latest news states that Port Robertson about two hours away from Monrovia has some good diving and decent compressor and maybe even gear purchase ( I wont get my hopes up ) wish me luck as I find out more I will post
Ok
Is this thread still going?
I am in the process of going to work in Monrovia. I have all my equipment, except a compressor. Anyone have current info on the situation over there?
I'd be focusing on things like ak-47 shooting skills, clearing stoppages, hand to hand combat, improvised weapons and explosives and anti kidnapping strategies.
Drive on with your bad self. I hope you make it back.
