Marine Warranty Survey
Marine Warranty Surveys & Expert Witness Services
At DMCH Marine, we provide comprehensive Marine Warranty Surveys to ensure vessel integrity, compliance, and risk mitigation for stakeholders. These surveys play a crucial role in protecting owners, insurers, and charterers by verifying a vessel’s seaworthiness and operational condition before critical maritime operations.
Pre-Tow Condition & Towage Approvals
We conduct pre-tow surveys to assess a vessel’s structural condition, towing arrangements, and compliance with marine warranty standards before approving a towage operation. This ensures the safety of the tow and mitigates risks for underwriters and involved parties.
On-Hire & Off-Hire Condition Surveys
Our on-hire and off-hire surveys provide a detailed record of a vessel’s condition at the start and end of a charter period, helping owners and charterers avoid disputes over damages, maintenance responsibilities, and contractual obligations.
Condition Surveys – Vessel & Machinery Assessments
We perform independent condition surveys to assess the structural integrity, operational status, and maintenance requirements of vessels and machinery. These surveys support buyers, owners, insurers, and financiers by providing a clear assessment of asset condition, identifying potential risks, and ensuring compliance with industry standards.
Expert Witness & Loss Adjusting Services
With extensive experience as a Marine Loss Adjuster and Investigator, we offer expert witness services for legal and insurance cases involving vessel condition disputes, equipment failures, towage incidents, and contractual claims. Our reports are prepared to a high evidentiary standard, providing authoritative assessments for arbitration and litigation.
At DMCH Marine, we apply rigorous technical expertise and regulatory knowledge to every survey, ensuring compliance with AMSA, class, and international maritime requirements.
