CONDITION · ON/OFF-HIRE · P&I ENTRY
Marine Surveys & Condition Assessment
Condition surveys attended by a surveyor who was with the American Bureau of Shipping, including new construction survey in Korea, and left as Corporate Vice President, Global Marine Sectors. Engagements are led by our founder, and every report names the reviewer who wrote it. You get a class-trained eye that reports to you and to nobody else.
What's Included
- Vessel condition surveys for owners, charterers, insurers and lenders
- On-hire and off-hire condition and bunker surveys
- Condition surveys to P&I entry standards
- Damage and repair-scope surveys, with the repair specification written from the findings
- Reports written to be read: findings, severity, recommended action
How We Engage
- 1
Agree the scope, the port and the access required.
- 2
Survey on board.
- 3
Report to an agreed deadline, with findings ranked.
Outcomes
These are commercial condition surveys. They do not alter the vessel's class status, clear conditions of class or produce statutory certification. Buying or selling a vessel is a different exercise with a different report: that work sits under S&P Inspection. Our reports are prepared for the party that instructs us and for the purpose stated in the engagement. Reliance by any other party requires our written agreement.
