Expert Supervision for High-Value & Oversized Cargo

Project cargo requires more than standard supervision. It demands a proactive approach to prevent structural damage and ensure every lift is executed within safe tolerances.

  • Lift Plan & Rigging Analysis

    We review technical lift plans to ensure compliance with vessel and terminal capabilities. This includes inspecting rigging gear and verifying that all lifting points and gear are certified and fit for purpose.

  • Operational Supervision & Safety

    Our Port Captains are on-site to monitor the entire loading or discharge process. We maintain direct communication with the Master, crane operators, and stevedores to ensure the agreed sequence is followed strictly.

  • Securing & Lashing Oversight

    While we do not perform physical lashing, we provide expert verification of lashing calculations and sea-fastening methods. We ensure your cargo is secured according to international standards to withstand the forces of maritime transport.
