Condition Surveys – Overview
A Condition Survey provides an objective and factual assessment of a vessel’s overall state at a specific point in time. Shipowners, charterers, insurers, and financiers often require such surveys to establish the true condition of a vessel’s hull, machinery, equipment, and safety systems.
This service offers a reliable snapshot of the vessel’s operational readiness, helping stakeholders make informed decisions regarding chartering, insurance coverage, financing, or sale and purchase transactions.

Our experienced surveyors and inspectors carry out a systematic review of the vessel, ensuring transparent and unbiased results:
