Marine growth, corrosion, and structural damage affect vessel performance and safety. Traditionally, hull checks meant dry docking—a costly and time-consuming process.

Benefits of Underwater Inspections

• Cost savings: No need for dockyard facilities.
• Time efficiency: Conducted while vessel remains afloat.
• Compliance: Meets class society requirements for periodic surveys.

When to Choose Dry Docking Instead

• When major repairs or steel replacement are needed.
• For painting and anti-fouling renewal.
• After grounding or collision damage.
