Charter transitions come with risk — and that risk can quickly become costly. Whether you’re a shipowner or charterer, our On-Hire and Off-Hire Surveys ensure a clear, independent record of the vessel’s condition and fuel status at the point of delivery or redelivery.

At Navis Safety Consulting, we protect your commercial interests by providing objective assessments that support fair handover, reduce disputes, and safeguard claims. All executed by certified professionals with global inspection credentials.

Accurate measurement of fuel and lubricants onboard using tank soundings and certified tables. Results are documented to establish financial fairness between parties.

We assess and document the vessel’s structural, deck, accommodation, and machinery condition. All supported by timestamped imagery to validate pre- or post-charter status.

Clear evidence to prevent false claims or disputes. If damage is found, we document extent, probable cause, and estimated impact, allowing you to act early and defensively.

We act as a neutral technical presence, supporting communication between charterer and owner by providing third-party facts and compliance-level transparency.

We conduct a fast, structured process — from initial boarding and ROB measurements to detailed condition checks and final reporting — ensuring clear, unbiased documentation for a smooth and dispute-free charter transition.

We align with both parties and clarify survey scope.
