The classification survey of a ship’s hull is fundamental to ensure structural strength, watertight integrity, and long-term seaworthiness. Conducted under INTLREG (International Register of Shipping) Rules and Regulations, the survey includes inspection of the hull’s plating, framing, welds, and protective coatings. These surveys occur during construction, periodically throughout the vessel’s life, and after repair or modifications. The goal is to confirm that the hull meets international safety standards and can withstand operational stresses.

INTLREG provides clear guidance and technical oversight to help owners maintain compliance while minimizing operational disruption. Through technical rigor and client-focused service, INTLREG ensures vessels remain safe, efficient, and fit for global operations under evolving maritime regulations.
