Whether you are the Charterer or the Owner of a vessel, it is essential to have the vessel's condition assessed at the start and close of a charter period. An on/off hire survey, usually done in combination with a bunker quantity survey, is carried out when a vessel is delivered to the Charterer or re-delivered to its Owner.

Our experienced surveyors will inspect the vessel's certificates and all compartments and parts to be used by the Charterer, including the condition of holds, hatches, main deck, and loading gear. If the survey concerns a vessel or a ferry, the inspection will also include the accommodation part(s) in use by the Charterer.

The survey can be carried out on behalf of Owners, Charterers, or for mutual interest, and the survey report you will receive can be of assistance to substantiate claims from Owners towards Charterers or to decline a claim towards the Charterer.

In addition, we offer an ultrasonic test to assess the watertightness of the hatch covers, which may be of interest in case of an on-hire survey carried out on behalf of Charterer. Our team owns special (certified) ultrasonic equipment, and several of our surveyors are certified operators.
