Marine Surveyors Coverage
Prevent Survey delivers efficient and cost-effective inspections using experienced surveyors and top-of-the-line equipment. Alongside traditional methods, we utilize the latest technologies, including underwater drones, aerial drones, and 3D scanners. Our dedicated team is committed to providing exceptional service with energy and enthusiasm, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our clients.
Damage assessment
Surveys of damage to hull and machinery of inland shipping vessels, coastal and Deepsea vessels, dredging material, on-shore and contracting materials, technical installations, machinery and cranes, water-related equipment and fixtures such as harbour quays, locks and bridges.
On-/ off hire surveys and charter surveys
We provide independent on- and off-hire surveys for vessel owners, charterers, and contractors, including detailed condition assessments, ultrasonic thickness measurements, and 3D scans. Our reports include condition documentation, financial compensation assessments for damages or improvements, and repair cost estimates, ensuring transparent and accurate evaluations.
3D laser scanner
Prevent Survey uses a 3D laser scanner for precise recording of vessels and technical objects in on-hire and off-hire surveys. Scans are compared to detect differences, including subtle deformations. The findings, including deviations and repair costs, are reported clearly, enhancing accuracy and transparency. This process ensures verifiable results for all parties. We are available to discuss specific needs and costs.
Bunker / BOB surveys
A Bunker or BOB (Bunkers on Board) survey can be conducted before a charter period, either as a standalone service or alongside an On-hire Survey. We measure the quantity of fuel, including Fuel Oil, Diesel Oil, Lubricants, and Freshwater, at the start of the charter. After the charter period, another survey determines the consumed bunkers. The scope of the survey can be adjusted based on the client's needs.
Condition & Valuation Surveys
We specialize in valuations for inland vessels, seagoing tugs, deep-sea barges, and ship docks. We assess the object's value and conduct technical condition surveys, including hull and machinery inspections, to estimate future maintenance costs. Our experts are registered with the VRT (Verenigd Register van Taxateurs).
Transport engineering
We offer comprehensive water transport services, ranging from loading or unloading at ports to full port-to-port transportation. Our services include planning, engineering, communication, and supervision throughout the transport process. We provide flexible options, available on an hourly, daily, or lump-sum basis.

Ballast / Barge engineering

Our ballast plans ensure compliance with IMO regulations on ballast water pollution. We also conduct suitability surveys to confirm the selected vessels are appropriate for the job before signing a charter contract.
