Machinery Condition &
Damage Surveys

Your vessel’s machinery is at the heart of its performance, safety, and profitability. Our Machinery Condition & Damage Surveys provide a detailed assessment of mechanical and electrical systems—ensuring they are operating at peak efficiency and identifying issues before they lead to costly downtime. Whether for insurance, purchase, maintenance, or post-incident evaluation, we deliver accurate, independent reports you can rely on.

What We Assess

Our surveys cover all primary and auxiliary machinery onboard, including:

  • Propulsion Systems – Main engines, gearboxes, shafts, and propellers.

  • Auxiliary Equipment – Generators, pumps, compressors, winches, and cranes.

  • Cargo Handling Gear – Moving hatch covers, mooring systems, and towing equipment.

  • Electrical Systems – Power distribution, wiring, and controls.

  • Portable Equipment – Machinery carried as cargo or used for temporary operations.

Damage Investigation & Diagnostics

When mechanical issues arise, we provide a structured, evidence-based evaluation to determine:

  • Nature & Extent of Damage – Identifying worn, broken, or faulty components.

  • Cause Analysis – Determining whether the issue is due to wear, improper use, or a specific incident.

  • Strip-Down Inspections – Attending and documenting machinery disassembly for accurate condition reports.

  • Testing & Commissioning Oversight – Verifying correct installation and performance after repairs or replacements.

  • Wear-Down Measurements – Comparing pre- and post-operation data to track equipment degradation.
