Cargo/Bunker Ships

Regarding Cargo/Bunkers our services include:

• Cargo Condition Surveys. We can verify the condition of cargo and provide professional advice to minimize cargo transportation risks.
• On / Off Hire Surveys. We can conduct inspections to document the condition and status of a vessel before and after a charter period. These surveys are crucial in protecting the interests of both the shipowner and the charterer by providing a clear record of the vessel's condition, fuel, and consumables at the start and end of the charter.
• Draft Surveys. A Draft Survey is a method used to determine the weight of cargo loaded or discharged from a ship by measuring the displacement of water caused by the vessel. It is a widely used technique in the maritime industry to calculate cargo quantities, especially for bulk cargoes.
• Bunker Quantity and Quality Surveys (BQS). A Bunker Quantity Survey (BQS) focuses on verifying the amount of fuel supplied to the ship. It is a crucial inspection because discrepancies in the quantity of bunkers can lead to significant financial losses for the shipowner or charterer.
• Vessel Cargo Sampling & Monitoring Services. This survey refers to a series of procedures designed to ensure the quality, quantity, and integrity of cargo loaded, transported, and discharged from vessels. It is another essential service that must be performed in order to maintain cargo standards. In addition, it can verify contract specifications, and prevent contamination in cargo.
