    CREW AND MARINE SURVEYOR SAFETY

    People are the cornerstone of our industry and that’s why we consider the wellbeing and safety of our staff, surveyors and, customers, as well as others we may encounter along the way, to be our highest priority. We are passionate about this. With that in mind we have put detailed protocols in place to ensure all boarding surveyors to minimise infection-risk and self-declare that they have no symptoms, and that have they not been in contact with anybody who has. We also insist that surveyors board your ships with preventative measures at the forefront of their minds, observing full PPE guidelines, without exception.

    DIGITAL SERVICES

    Technology has always been at the forefront of the Idwal philosophy and our ability to leverage robust systems and remote data tools during the current pandemic, has enabled us to continue to ensure your inspections, risk assessments, and operations remain up and running whether this be in person, or remotely.

    REMOTE INSPECTIONS

    We understand that inspections may not always be physically possible during this time. If you are experiencing difficulties with access to vessels, then our remote capabilities may be able to assist you to get the critical data you need, to continue to make critical business decisions. Ask your Account Manager about our remote services.

    REMOTE ASSET REVIEWS

    Our shipping experts, working alongside our internal software development and data teams, have been able to develop a unique product which leverages our data and combines it with our shipping expertise and other available data sources to deliver a remote assessment of any vessel, in any asset class, without the need to ever set foot on a vessel.

    ONLINE ACCESS 24/7

    The Idwal Customer Portal remains fully operational for you to order any Pre All inspection results, Idwal Grades, and attached media are provided directly through our digital  platform as well as being delivered straight to your electronic mailbox, meaning you have prompt and full access to your reports.

     

     

    DRY DOCKING SUPPORT

    With increasing global travel restrictions, many Idwal clients are finding our Dry-Docking supervision services to be of huge value. Many businesses simply cannot mobilise their own pool of Superintendents to attend their vessels for critical dry-dockings or repairs, or simply for routine internal inspections.


    We’re seeing that our clients are finding our Dry-Docking Services invaluable where they cannot mobilise their own pool of Superintendents to attend a vessel. Similarly, our locally resident Marine Surveyor network is vital to our clients during this time, enabling us to get our surveyors onboard ships where travel between countries or even cities is limited or non-existent.

    Our Dry dock supervision services are designed specifically to protect our clients' interests and to ensure the dry-docking is well-planned, controlled and executed in line with industry best practise and with minimal cost-escalation. Critically, ensuring that spending authority is respected and financial exposure is minimised where possible. Whilst ensuring that asset-integrity, longevity and fulfilment of future charter commitment is not compromised

    Our docking services are available globally, with a particular strength coming from China, where Idwal operates a fully-manned operational centre in Shanghai.

    VESSEL INSPECTIONS

    Despite this unprecedented pandemic, Idwal surveyors are still managing to reach vessels and undertake vital inspections; supporting our clients globally to our usual high standard. Many of our clients simply cannot mobilise their own technical staff right now, and at Idwal we are more than happy to support your internal inspection requirements, reporting in whatever format you require us to.

    If you are struggling to fulfil internal inspection quotas, then please do contact us with an example of your reporting criteria, and we may just be able to help.
