When it comes to transporting large and heavy cargo, such as machinery, equipment, or infrastructure components, projects and heavy lifts surveys play a crucial role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of the operation. The initial cargo inspection is the first step in the projects and heavy lifts survey. It involves assessing the condition of the cargo and stowing. This inspection is essential to identify any damage that may have occurred during or prior to voyage.
Continuous attendance on board is maintained during discharge. It is ensured that an experienced surveyor is present on the vessel throughout the transportation process to monitor the cargo’s condition. Photographs also play a significant role in projects and heavy lifts survey. They serve as visual documentation of the cargo’s condition before, during, and after the transportation. These photographs can be used as evidence in case of any disputes or claims that may arise, providing a clear and accurate representation of the cargo’s state.
