By assessing route planning, navigational equipment, and safety practices, these audits identify risks and enable immediate corrective actions. This proactive approach enhances safety, operational efficiency, and fosters best practices for bridge teams.
Pre-Vetting Inspections
Pre-Vetting Inspections ensure vessels meet the required standards before entering chartering or trading agreements. These inspections assess compliance with safety, regulatory, and environmental guidelines, helping ship owners and operators identify potential issues early. This proactive approach minimizes risks, enhances vessel performance, and ensures smooth operational operations.
ISM/ISPS Audits
ISM/ISPS Audits assess a vessel's compliance with the International Safety Management (ISM) Code and International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code. These audits evaluate safety management systems, security protocols, and operational procedures, ensuring vessels meet international standards. The result is enhanced safety, security, and regulatory compliance.
Pre-Rightship Inspections
Pre-Rightship Inspections are conducted to ensure vessels meet the criteria required by Rightship, a leading provider of vessel vetting services. These inspections assess safety, environmental compliance, and operational standards to ensure vessels are suitable for chartering. The process identifies potential issues early, reducing risks and ensuring smooth operations.
Pre-Purchase Inspections
Pre-Purchase Inspections provide a thorough evaluation of a vessel’s condition before purchase. These inspections assess structural integrity, machinery, safety equipment, and compliance with regulations, helping buyers make informed decisions. By identifying potential issues early, Pre-Purchase Inspections minimize risks, ensure transparency, and protect investment in maritime assets.
VDR Audits
VDR (Voyage Data Recorder) Audits evaluate the functionality and accuracy of a vessel’s data recording systems. These audits ensure that critical navigation and operational data are being recorded in compliance with international regulations. VDR Audits help improve safety, enable post-incident analysis, and ensure the integrity of voyage data.
TMSA
The TMSA framework, developed by the Oil Companies International Marine Forum, enhances safety in tanker operations by providing tools for self-regulation, continuous improvement, and adherence to global standards. Widely accepted and used by 90% of operators, including all oil majors, TMSA ensures efficiency and compliance with industry-wide safety protocols.
Preparation of Shipboard Manuals
Preparation of Shipboard Manuals involves creating comprehensive, vessel-specific documents that outline operational procedures, safety protocols, and compliance guidelines. These manuals are tailored to meet regulatory standards, including ISM, ISPS, and MARPOL. They ensure crew members are well-equipped with necessary information, promoting safe, efficient, and compliant vessel operations.
