Marine/Draught Survey
In / Off Hire Survey incorporating Bunker Survey:When a vessel commences a time-charter it is said to be “delivered” to the charterer. When the charter period comes to an end it is said to be “redelivered” to the vessel owner. During the period of the time-charter the charterer provides the bunker fuel. Upon completion of the time-charter the vessel is redelivered to the vessel owner, and the owner takes over the bunkers that are still remaining on board. It is therefore vital that charterers ensure that bunker quantities on board are verified on commencement of time-charter and on re delivery.
In order to minimize potential disputes between the vessel owner and the charterer, Zaraof Engineering Services Ltd provides highly experienced marine surveyors who carry out an On Hire Survey on delivery, and an Off Hire Survey on redelivery. The surveyors sound the ballast tanks, calculate and certify the fuel on board. We also survey the condition of the vessel to check for damage. Our skilled surveyors professionally survey the pertinent parts of the vessel, namely, the vessel´s hull, holds, hatch covers, mooring equipment, deck and cargo gears in order to check for any signs of damage caused during the charter period. During Off Hire Survey we will thoroughly examine the vessel and, if damage is noted, the surveyor will make enquiries to the Master and Chief Officer to explore as best possible whether the damage is new or old. We provide a detailed report including specific information regarding the extent and possible cause of the damage. Photographic evidence is taken recording the condition at the time of survey. An examination of all vessel´s certificates is also conducted and copies are obtained to compliment the survey report.
Draught Survey
A draught survey is a calculation of the weight of cargo loaded into, or discharged from a vessel. The survey is based on Archimedes’ displacement principle, as the draught survey measures the displacement of the water both prior to, and on completion of cargo loading or discharging. The difference between the two displacement figures represents the weight of the cargo.
Zaraof Engineering provides highly qualified and experienced marine surveyors to conduct draught survey on our client’s behalf. There are several key aspects to conducting an accurate draught survey, these include the vessel’s trim condition, dock or sea water swell conditions, accurate reading of the draught marks including the outer draught marks by small boat if necessary and sampling and testing of the dock water for salinity by hydrometer. Ballast tanks also need to be accurately sounded and the vessel’s constant needs to be ascertained.
We have expert draught surveyors working with us at many of the world’s most commonly used commercial ports.
Factory/Vendor Audit
In today’s demanding international business arena, it is important to have assurance that your supplier is capable of producing your goods on time and within specification. Ethical behaviour and corporate social responsibility are also becoming more and more of an issue. Our factory audit surveys provide an independent investigation into the supplier’s experience level, financial stability, production quality ability, raw material sourcing / quality and ethical labour practises.
Our highly qualified and experienced auditors follow a rigorous procedure of on-site auditing and vetting procedures which include investigating and evaluating the factory’s financial standing and structure; environmental impact; labour force skills, experience level and competency; reviewing the factory labour policy (age, number and wage structure); reviewing factory accreditations; reviewing health and safety records and practises, investigating raw material sources, reviewing of production and quality control processes and investigating previous experience of producing similar goods. Upon completion of the audit a comprehensive report is provided alongside supporting documentation, allowing the potential buyer to judge for themselves whether the supplier capable to deliver.
