PADI Semi Closed Rebreather Course with Borneo Dream in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia – Customer Feedback

Thanks to Borneo Dream for helping me with the PADI Semi Closed Rebreather course during my holiday in Kota Kinabalu. No regrets in doing it – especially when you experience the sea life really close up and not spooking them with bubbles.

I just want to say that I had a fantastic week diving with you guys and had a great time doing the Semi Closed Rebreather Course on the Drager Dolphin. Read the rest of this entry »

Congratulations to Chris Loh who became a certified PADI Semi Closed Rebreather diver with Borneo Dream this week using a Drager Dolphin! The course involved three course dives over two days in Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park, TARP, Sabah, Borneo. Chris also enjoyed a fourth leisure dive on the Drager Dolphin following the course.

The Drager Dolphin

The Drager Dolphin

The Drager Dolphin unit uses a 5 litre cylinder in standard configuration filled with Nitrox / enriched air of mixtures from 32% – 60% (depending up on the dive profile). Chris achieved two 70 minute dives and used 140 bar out of his 5 litre cylinder. Using an integrated Delta-P VR3 with an external oxygen cell it was determined that Chris had a metabolic rate of 0.7 litres per minute. The unit weighs the same as a standard 80 cuft. scuba diving cylinder.

Borneo Dream are the only authorised PADI dive operator in Sabah, Borneo who can offer the PADI Semi Closed Rebreather speciality. If you would like to know more about this course, then contact us.

Enjoy photos of Chris during his course and his first certified dive on the Drager Dolphin. Welcome to the world of diving on rebreathers Chris :-)
