Ensuring Vessel Safety, Compliance & Risk Mitigation for P&I Clubs
Protection & Indemnity (P&I) inspections are a critical risk management tool for shipowners, charterers, and insurers. These inspections help assess a vessel’s safety, operational standards, and compliance with international maritime regulations to minimize liabilities and prevent costly claims.
At Yarra Marine Surveyor, we provide comprehensive P&I inspections to help shipowners, P&I Clubs, and insurers evaluate potential risks, ensure compliance with industry standards, and avoid claims related to crew injuries, cargo loss, pollution, or structural damages.
P&I (Protection & Indemnity) inspections are preemptive surveys conducted to assess vessel conditions, safety procedures, and operational risks. These inspections help P&I Clubs and shipowners:
✔ Reduce liability exposure by identifying hazards early.
✔ Ensure regulatory compliance with international maritime laws.
✔ Minimize claims related to cargo damage, crew injuries, or pollution.
✔ Improve operational efficiency and vessel seaworthiness.
