Our experienced service engineers, fully trained by OEMs, carry out the required annual surveys efficiently while meeting tight operational schedules. We thoroughly test and inspect every function and component of the lifeboat and davit systems, promptly addressing any defects or issues identified. Our team also manages the entire certification process in close coordination with the vessel’s representatives and the relevant authorities.

The annual inspection of lifeboats and davits plays a vital role in safeguarding crew members and passengers. We strictly adhere to IMO regulations and international guidelines for the inspection, maintenance, and testing of these essential life-saving systems.
