Introducing RightShip’s Inspections: Helping Reduce Risk in Maritime Operations

RightShip vessel inspections evaluate a ship's condition, quality and the effectiveness of Safety Management System (SMS) implementation, adoption of industry recommendations and best practices, and the health and well-being of seafarers onboard. Our risk-based approach, provides an independent and credible assessment of a vessel’s operation, delivering value to charterers, ship managers, terminal operators, and regulatory authorities.
 
All inspections are carried out by accredited inspectors trained to apply a standardised inspection methodology to deliver consistent evidence-based outcomes. The outcomes of a RightShip dry inspection reflect the actual condition and standard of operation of a vessel at the time of inspection. Such inspections, along with the vetting process, allow for assessment of risk, preventative controls, and recommendations to assist key players across the maritime landscape.

Types of RightShip Inspections

Each inspection type is designed to meet your specific needs, ensuring both efficiency and a thorough assessment of your vessel's condition and compliance. 

inspections 1

Standard Inspection

This includes all relevant questions during the physical inspection. Typical duration on board is up to 14 hours
inspections 2

Hybrid Inspection (recommended)

This allows for specific documentation for a defined set of questions to be provided by managers at least 72 hours in advance of the physical inspection. This reduces time spent on board addressing clarifications where required for those questions. Typical duration on board is approximately 9 hours
inspections 3

Dual Inspection

This involves two inspectors each covering their parts to complete all relevant questions during the physical inspection. Typical duration on board is approximately 7 hours
