Comprehensive Technical Oversight and Compliance Assurance for Safer, Smarter Maritime Operations

EMARIS SHIPPING PTE LTD provides expert marine audits, inspection, and regulatory consultancy to uphold international maritime standards, reduce risks, and enhance fleet reputation for vessel owners, managers, charterers, and stakeholders.

1. Pre-Purchase Inspections and Condition Surveys

Our qualified marine surveyors conduct detailed pre-purchase condition assessments, including hull integrity, machinery, safety equipment, cargo systems (especially for oil/bunker tankers), and compliance with Class, Flag, and international standards, enabling informed buyer decisions.

2. Stowage and Lashing Surveys

Experienced surveyors conduct stowage and lashing inspections per IMO’s CSS Code, ensuring proper cargo distribution and securing, use of certified equipment, compatibility with securing manuals, and providing photographic evidence and recommendations. This reduces claims and ensures cargo safety.

3. On/Off Hire Condition Surveys

EMARIS performs comprehensive on-hire and off-hire condition assessments covering visual inspection of cargo holds/tanks, deck and hull condition, bunker ROB verification, damage/cleanliness reports, and fuel consumption documentation, mitigating post-hire disputes.

4. Internal ISM, ISPS & MLC Audits

Our internal auditors (qualified lead auditors and ex-Flag State inspectors) conduct in-depth safety management audits, ensuring effective SMS implementation, crew familiarity with procedures, proper documentation, MLC compliance, and ISPS Code adherence. Reports include findings, root cause analysis, and corrective/preventive actions.

5. Navigational Audits

We conduct navigational bridge audits to evaluate bridge team management, ECDIS/Radar/ARPA use, voyage planning, passage plan appraisal, and COLREGs/company procedure compliance, reducing incidents and enhancing safety.

6. Pre-Vetting Inspections (OCIMF/SIRE Readiness)

Prior to vetting inspections, EMARIS performs pre-vetting inspections based on OCIMF/SIRE 2.0, assessing vessel structure/maintenance, crew knowledge/documentation, safety equipment, and bridge/cargo operations readiness, boosting SIRE vetting success and marketability.

7. Safety Investigations and Risk Assessments

Following marine incidents, our investigation team gathers evidence, determines root causes, provides objective reports, and recommends corrective/preventive actions. We also conduct operational and technical risk assessments per ISM requirements.

8. Regulatory and Compliance Consultancy

We assist clients with regulatory navigation, including preparing vessels for Class/Flag inspections, SMS documentation reviews, MARPOL/SOLAS/ILO audits, and compliance with new industry standards (e.g., SIRE 2.0, TMSA 3, EEXI/CII regulations), acting as technical advisors to keep fleets audit-ready.
