Machinery inspection ensures that all mechanical components are functional and safe, which is crucial for the vessel’s safe and efficient operation.
Hull and Machinery Surveyors focus primarily on the structural integrity of the hull and the functioning of the vessel’s mechanical systems, including engines, propulsion, and steering.
Hull and Machinery Surveyors inspect critical structural components like hull plating, framing, and bulkheads to ensure the vessel’s integrity.
Corrosion and pitting on the hull plating can weaken the structure and is a serious issue that needs investigation to maintain vessel safety.
After examining the machinery and structural elements, the surveyor issues a Machinery Condition Survey Report, detailing findings related to the vessel’s mechanical systems.
