Contact Us TodayNeed IACS-approved In-Water Inspection? Certified for fast hull and propeller surveys in major West Africa ports. Minimize your vessel's downtime.
Classification Society Approvals: Explicitly approved by major IACS member societies for conducting UWILD surveys.
Surveyor Monitoring: The entire survey is monitored and recorded via live video feed, with two-way communication between our certified divers and the attending Classification Surveyor, who retains full control.
High-Quality Visuals: Use of professional-grade underwater cameras to capture clear video and high-resolution color still photographs of the entire hull, including all necessary clearance measurements (e.g., rudder, propeller, stern tube).
Hull Cleanliness Assurance : Survey site selection requires clear water visibility (>2 meters) and the hull must be sufficiently clean to enable the surveyor to make a reliable assessment of its condition.
Reduced Dry-Docking Costs: Successfully completing an IWS allows vessels to defer or skip expensive, mandatory dry-dock visits.
Minimal Downtime: The survey is completed rapidly while the vessel remains afloat or alongside, greatly reducing off-hire periods.
Regulatory Certainty: Guarantees that the vessel maintains its class certificate and meets all regulatory requirements without disruption.
Proactive Condition Monitoring: Provides detailed, documented evidence of hull condition, enabling early planning for necessary repairs.
Pre-Survey Application: BW TECH works with the client to submit the initial IWS application to the classification society's Ship Safety Headquarters for approval.
Site Preparation: Identification and securing of a protected survey site with sufficient water depth, calm conditions, and excellent visibility (typically >2m).
Survey Execution: Examination of the entire hull below the waterline by a BW TECH competent diver, using live video monitored by the Marine Surveyor (typically carried out in Light Operating Condition).
Reporting & Certification: A full written divers report, along with video and photographic evidence, is submitted immediately to the vessel master, client headquarters, and the attending classification society Marine Surveyor for final certification.
Our specialization in In-Water Inspection is validated by our direct approvals from major IACS members, guaranteeing a high-quality, compliant, and efficient alternative to traditional dry-docking.
