What we do

Every service ends with a written report.

Draft Survey

We read the vessel's drafts before and after loading or discharge to calculate the cargo quantity moved.

Bunker Survey

We measure the fuel on board before and after bunkering to confirm the quantity delivered.

Tally Control Cargo

We count and record cargo units as they are loaded or discharged.

Loss Control & Damage Reports

We document shortages and damage to cargo with measurements and photos, so claims have evidence behind them.

Measurement & Sampling

On oil tankers, we measure tank quantities and take product samples.
