Underwater Shipping Surveys

We provide underwater surveys for vessels to support classification, insurance, and operational requirements. These surveys are carried out by certified commercial divers in accordance with international shipping standards and classification society guidelines.

HULL INSPECTIONS - Examination of the vessel’s hull below the waterline to assess condition, coating performance, and evidence of damage, fouling, or corrosion.

PROPELLER AND RUDDER SURVEYS - Inspection of propellers, rudders, and steering gear for damage, wear, cavitation, and alignment issues.

SEA CHEST INSPECTION - Visual inspection of sea chests, gratings, and openings to confirm clearance, integrity, and absence of obstruction.

ANODE CONDITION ASSESSMENT - Survey of sacrificial anodes or impressed current systems to verify performance and identify replacements required.

DAMAGE AND INCIDENT SURVEYS - Underwater assessment of grounding, collision, or allision damage to support repair planning and insurance claims.

CLASS IN-LIEU-OF DRYDOCK (UWILD) - Surveys performed underwater as an alternative to drydocking, in compliance with classification society rules

BIOFOULING AND CLEANING SUPPORT - Assessment of marine growth on hull surfaces, propellers, and appendages, with cleaning operations as required.

PHOTOGRAPHIC AND VIDEO DOCUMENTATION - High-quality imaging to support survey findings, enabling owners, insurers, and classification societies to verify vessel condition.

TECHNICAL REPORTING - Delivery of detailed reports, including findings, photographic evidence, and recommendations for corrective actions or maintenance.
