A Practical Guide to Shipboard Inspections

All ship types across the industry are subject to various kinds of inspections — from flag state checking that ships comply with international and national standards to third-party inspections requested by charterers. Preparing for these inspections helps shipping companies ensure their ships navigate the seas safely, on schedule and in a manner that protects the marine environment.

A Practical Guide to Shipboard Inspections is a comprehensive guide to implementing a systematic approach to inspections for all ship types.

  • Port state
  • Flag state
  • Class
  • Port health
  • Masters
  • ITF inspections and more.

Developed using extensive interviews with current inspectors, this guide helps officers, crews and superintendents better understand how to:

  • Work effectively with inspectors and surveyors
  • Prepare for each type of inspection
  • Identify what aspects of their ship needs further improvement before an inspection
  • Dispute deficiencies in an appeals process and
  • Deal with corruption during an inspection.
