Damage and
Valuation Reports

Professional Insight Following Marine Incidents or for Asset Appraisal

Damage and Valuation Surveys are crucial after marine accidents, grounding, fire, collision, or equipment failure. We provide timely, factual, and neutral damage assessments to support insurance claims, legal disputes, or internal investigations. For valuation purposes, we determine a vessel’s fair market worth based on condition, age, build specifications, and global market benchmarks.
