AqualisBraemar LOC is a leading independent global marine, engineering and adjusting consultancy to the renewables, maritime, oil & gas and powers sectors, with over 60 offices across 39 countries worldwide and consisting of the following group companies.
Vessel Grounding & Vessel Collision Services
LOC is frequently instructed to assess the damage resulting from vessel collisions and groundings on behalf of the vessel’s owners or insurers. Our experienced master mariners, marine engineers and naval architects can attend the vessel to investigate the cause of the incident, assess the stability and strength of the vessel in its damaged state, and provide independent advice in relation to salvage operations. Once the nature and extent of damages are known we are able to estimate the likely cost of repairs and monitor and report throughout the repair process.
We are experts with many years of experience in this field. Get in touch to find out more about our services.
Worldwide Experts In Collisions & Grounding Suppor
Should the collision or grounding become the subject of litigation proceedings, LOC is able to provide expert evidence. We are able to analyse and interpret electronic navigational data, AIS (Automatic Identification System) data to replicate collision scenarios and meteorological conditions at the time of the casualty.
LOC experts can provide evidence on ship handling, pollution control, repairs and repair costs and the nature and extent of the damage. We are able to investigate any ship collision such as the speed and angle of the blow and can use 3D modelling and video overlay of incident modelling. We are well placed to do this by our worldwide network of offices.
Related services in marine casualties include cargo damage, pollution support, hull & machinery damage, and salvage.
