Vessel inspections
An inspection is only useful if it tells you what to do next. Ours set out the vessel's condition and readiness in plain terms, with practical corrective actions in priority order.
The challenge
Findings you can act on
Long reports that bury the important findings cost time. We separate what must be fixed before operation from what should be planned, and explain why.

What we cover
What's included
- 01
Condition assessment
Structure, equipment and systems relevant to the vessel's intended operation.
- 02
Operational readiness
Readiness for a specific operation or trade, including STS where relevant.
- 03
Prioritised findings
Clear findings ranked by urgency, with photographs and practical recommendations.
- 04
Inspection & certification support
Inspections supporting the issue of required compliance certificates, coordinated with the relevant parties.
A clear picture of the vessel, and a practical list of what to do about it.
