Types of Maine Surveyor courses we conduct:

Cargo Surveyor

The Certificate in Cargo Surveying is ideal for those planning to start or specialise in the area, who are
looking for key knowledge relating to how different types of cargo are carried, as well as identification &
appreciation of the principle responsibilities and skills of the Cargo Surveyor. The programme is also
invaluable for those who, while not practically involved in surveying, work in maritime trade, transport,
or insurance, who would benefit from a grounding in the expertise which allows cargo surveyors to play
such an integral role in the global carriage of goods.

Bunker Surveyor

The course aims to train participants to carry out bunker surveying in order to comply with the relevant
requirements, procedures and documentation in accordance with the Standard laid out — Code of
Practice for Bunkering. WIth this course, the student can expect to be challenged with real-life scenarios
while acquiring the fundamental skills necessary to accurately determine the quantity of fuel aboard a
ship, specifically:

• Fuel tank measurement techniques;

• Projecting onboard fuel quantity using consumption rates;

• Application of fuel tank volume tables/application of mathematical corrections;

• Deciphering unusual vessel tank data;

• Avoiding common errors.

On/Off Hire Surveyor

This inspection is conducted to the vessel at the beginning and/or end of the chartering and aims at
checking the overall condition of the vessel. The on/off hire condition survey is an inspection of vessel’s
holds, main deck, cargo working areas and external shell plating. It is performed in order to identify any
damage present prior to the vessel going on/off hire.
During this course you can expect, to gain knowledge of in analysing a vessel. The eyes of an
experienced professional inspect every bulkhead, ladder, pipe, corrugate, lower and upper hoppers,
bilge, tank top plating, manhole, hatch coaming, hatch covers and many other structures.

Damage Surveyor

When a ship collide with another ship or makes contact damage to a terminal structure the ultimate
cost of damage repair plus loss of cargo and environmental damage due to oil spillage can run into
millions of dollars. Loss of lives and/or crew injury adds more financial burden onto a shipowner.
Unfortunately, collision accidents at sea occur not only in a dense traffic-congested area or due to
restricted visibility, and/or machinery/equipment failure, etc. but a significant amount of incident
happening at open sea during clear visibility. Recent P&I club report published on some major casualties
suggest that substandard bridge procedure, human error and lack of situational awareness were the
root cause in many collision incidences.

Yacht Surveyor

When buying or selling a yacht anywhere it is necessary to carry out yacht survey by an experienced
qualified surveyor with Professional Indemnity insurance.

Yacht industry is a well flourished industry and demands many surveys during the life of a yacht.

The marine surveyor may identify faults that the average boat owner will not be aware of, possibly using
specialist equipment. Knowledge of faults and deterioration can assist the purchaser regarding
associated rectification of defects or appropriate allowances.
