Vessel Draft Survey
At Orchid Marine International (OMI), we provide professional vessel survey services, including draft surveys, bunker surveys, and on/off hire surveys, to ensure accurate cargo measurement, fuel accountability, and vessel condition verification. Approved by the Mercantile Marine Department (MMD) and DIFE, our surveys are conducted with precision, transparency, and compliance with international maritime standards. A draft survey calculates cargo weight by measuring a vessel’s displacement before and after loading or unloading, while a bunker survey determines the exact quantity of fuel on board, and an on/off hire survey records the vessel’s condition during charter periods. Our certified marine surveyors provide detailed reports and documentation, helping shipowners, charterers, and port authorities maintain operational efficiency, prevent disputes, and comply with IMO, port, and insurance requirements.
A bunker survey is a method of determining the quantity of fuel oil (bunkers) on board a vessel before and after delivery. It is widely used in the shipping industry to ensure accurate fuel accountability, prevent disputes between suppliers and shipowners, and verify compliance with charter party agreements.
Bunker Survey
On/Off Hire Survey
An On/Off Hire Survey is an inspection carried out at the time a vessel is delivered to or redelivered from a charter. The survey records the vessel’s condition, cargo holds, tanks, and bunkers to determine responsibilities between the shipowner and charterer. It helps ensure transparency, prevent disputes, and establish accountability for any damage, repairs, or fuel consumption during the charter period.
