At the heart of each tonnage

Vessel pre-purchase inspection

The user of our service will have a very valuable tool

The main goal of our surveyors, apart from revealing the vessel condition, is to find prior to the purchase, deficiencies or incompliances that could lead to unpredicted expenditure during the future operation of the ship, and so to mitigate as much as possible the uncertainty of the purchase of a second-hand vessel.

With our report and our technical support, the prospective buyer will have a very valuable tool to negotiate during the purchase process.

The service includes as main basis the inspection of all accessible parts of the ship, including those that are not accessible, but that its internal inspections are agreed upon. (Tanks, engines, cofferdams, ...).

The report contain:

1. Overview
2. Definition of the different grades. 1-10.
3. Buyer requirements
4. Detailed description of the vessel and available documentation
