Draft Survey

Draft survey, also known as cargo survey, is a reliable and precise method used to determine the quantity of cargo carried on a vessel. Based on Archimedes’ principle, which states that the volume of fluid displaced by a fully or partially submerged body equals the volume of the submerged portion of the body, this procedure calculates the cargo weight by measuring the difference in the ship’s draft before and after loading or discharge. Our service provides accurate, reliable, and traceable measurements, offering essential data for cargo control, contractual compliance, and operational safety. Professional draft surveys protect the interests of all parties involved, helping to prevent commercial disputes, losses, or inconsistencies in cargo. With the supervision of our experts, you gain transparency, reliability, and commercial protection, ensuring that every loading or discharge operation is conducted efficiently, safely, and accurately.
