Whether you are the owner or the
charterer, it is critical to have sound, reputable documentation of the condition of a

Condition survey
When buying, selling or chartering a vessel, an
independent bunker and condition survey provides you with documented proof of the actual
condition of the vessel. A visual inspection performed by one of our marine services experts
also minimizes your commercial and contractual risks by ensuring that the quality of the
bulk cargo shipped from the load port is the quality that arrives at the discharge port.
Our qualified inspectors provide you with documented independent proof of the actual condition of the vessel you are buying, chartering or using. The findings and the report that Transoil provides can be used to substantiate claims that may arise as a result of damage to the vessel or cargo.
