On/Off-hire

• Inspection of the condition of all cargo holds, weather decks in the way of the cargo handling areas, and cargo cranes/gear to establish a base line for damages which may occur during the charter period.

• Sounding of all Bunker Fuel tanks including Heavy Fuel and Marine Diesel Oil. The amount of fuel onboard at the time of survey is then adjusted for consumption and/or fuel oil received to determine the fuel on board at the time of on or off-hire.

• A Bunker report is provided to the vessel at the time of survey. This report is signed and certified by the attending Surveyor, the vessel's Chief Engineer, and the vessel's Master.

• These surveys conducted on container vessels normally include an inventory of cargo securing gear.

• A full report is issued which includes the vessel's condition, photographs, and the bunker figures.
