MARINE CLASS INSPECTION

MARINE CLASS INSPECTION

Vertech’s Marine Department was formed through the amalgamation of our Marine Class division and Geo Oceans to form a single, cohesive team that prides itself on its pro-active, solutions-based approach. Vertech Marine is a highly experienced, dedicated team of office and site-based professionals. We specialise in the statutory inspections for the classification of ships and offshore floating structures and subsea inspections using the latest technology, proprietary inspection tools and cutting-edge software solutions.

Vertech's Marine Department is dedicated to unmanned and manned access, inspection and preservation solutions of marine structures. We are driven to innovate, develop and collaborate with subject matter experts and clients to be industry leading and to provide the safest, most cost-efficient service available.

Marine Class Integrity Services

With innovation being one of Vertech’s core values, we are striving be at the forefront of an ever-evolving market. We provide a broad array of engineering and repair capabilities to support marine class inspections, as well as providing ongoing integrity management of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs), Floating Production Storage & Offloading facilities (FPSOs), Floating Storage and Offloading vessels (FSOs), Floating Liquifed Natural Gas (FLNG), and Merchant Marine Assets.

Unmanned Marine Services

Vertech holds accreditations with all major societies for close up surveys, thickness measurements, in-water surveys, and remote inspection including: AS/NZS 45001:2018, NATA NDT Inspection, American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Bureau Veritas (BV), Det Norse Veritas (DNV), and Korean Register (KR). Over our years of service we have developed strong working relationships and gained extensive industry knowledge, allowing us to minimise the impact of the inspection on production and resources.

  • Class approved repair plans
  • Comprehensive survey planning
  • Operational audits
  • Vessel stability modelling
  • 360° interactive mapping surveys
  • Fatigue management
  • Anomaly tracking
  • Work pack generation

Manned Marine Services

As a testament to our client focus, high quality service and specialist marine packages, we have been chosen to complete complex campaign and compliance inspections on every FPSO in Australia and New Zealand as well as many others in the wider Asia Pacific and West Africa regions. In addition to oil and gas assets we have completed integrity and class inspections on merchant shipping vessels, barges, tugs, and defence vessels. Our manned services include:

Manned Marine Services
  • Confined space entry management
  • Rope access inspection
  • Non destructive testing (UT, MPI, ECI, DPI)
  • Advanced and specialised NDT
  • Close & general visual inspections
  • 3D Laser mapping
  • Pre-Docking surveys
  • Baseline inspection surveys
  • Special survey management & implementation
  • Crop and renew surveys

Unmanned Marine Services

Vertech group has led the charge and invested heavily in reducing and eventually removing manned inspections through advanced robotics such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV’s), Remote Digital Video Inspection (RDVI), robotic crawlers, and mini-ROV’s.

Geo Oceans, a Vertech Group company, have been innovators in the subsea inspection and marine sectors from its inception. This multi-award-winning business has driven a paradigm shift in the oil and gas market, seeing them now operate on a global scale. The team have developed the Advanced Robotics System (ADV-ROV), designed to perform asset deployed ROV inspections of vessel hulls, jackets, moorings, and riser systems from the splash zone to subsea. The robotic system is powerful, robust, and lightweight, perfectly designed for work in challenging conditions such as the splash zone. ADV-ROV capabilities include conventional UT and CP NDT, crack detection methods & corrosion mapping, advanced NDT, FMD, and marine growth & scale removal.

Marine Class Integrity Services

Vertech has recently gained class accreditation with IACS (International Association of Classification Societies) and is recognised member of the ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) for “Remote Inspection Techniques: UAV Inspection”. When combined with marine surveyors, AICIP or API inspectors our CASA accredited pilots are able to complete safe, cost-effective, and effecient inspections of marine structures without the need for manned alternatives such as rope access, or confined space entry.

  • Subsea Mag Nautilus corrosion mapping
  • Mechanical specialised NDT
  • Accredited Mini ROV ballast tank inspection & testing
  • ABS accredited UAV inspections
  • Next gen robotic crawlers and cameras
  • Cathodic protection inspection and testing
  • Mini-ROV mooring inspection
  • HP Blasting, cleaning and maintenance
