Marine surveys, engineering & damage assessment.

Project Overview

A ferry company operating a mixed fleet on the Rhine required an independent, data-driven assessment to decide between continued maintenance and strategic fleet renewal. We conducted comprehensive condition surveys on all vessels, combined with a full lifecycle cost analysis covering machinery wear, regulatory compliance gaps, and projected dry-dock expenses over the next decade.

Scope of Work

• Full condition surveys of all fleet vessels
• Machinery and hull integrity assessments
• Lifecycle cost modeling and projection
• Regulatory compliance gap analysis
• Strategic renewal recommendation report

Project Overview

A traditional sailing vessel required a complete restoration while integrating modern safety standards and classification requirements. We managed the entire refit process from initial survey through shipyard selection, progress supervision, and final sea trials — ensuring the vessel's historic character was preserved while meeting all current regulatory demands.

Scope of Work

• Initial condition and structural survey
• Refit scope definition and shipyard tender management
• Weekly progress inspections and quality control
• Modern safety systems integration oversight
• Classification society liaison and documentation
• Sea trial supervision and final acceptance

Project Overview

Three ex-military patrol vessels were being converted for civilian commercial use. Each vessel required complete stability recalculations to account for structural modifications, new equipment installations, and changed operational profiles. We provided full hydrostatic analysis and prepared all documentation required for civilian classification approval.

Scope of Work

• Lightship survey and weight estimation
• Complete hydrostatic calculations
• Intact and damage stability analysis
• Loading condition development
• Classification documentation and submission
• Regulatory authority coordination
