Maritime Accident Investigation – Survey & analysis – 24h Support

When an accident occurs in the shipping industry it is normally serious and requires a good understanding of the physical operations, legal position, rules and regulations, and technical designs.

Therefore, MBM Consultancy assists ship-owners and operators from the very first day by determining the Investigation channels (I.C) that will be required to establish a long term defence stand point for their case.

At MBM Consultancy, we understand that each case is unique and requires a customized approach. Therefore, our Investigation channels (I.C) are slowly developed during a thorough survey of the incident, review of personnel logs, vessel historic data, environmental data, and much more. Our experience in dealing with many types of incident investigation and key skills in gathering and interpreting facts before the accident allow us to determine the cause of the incident and present these facts in a favorable presentation.

RECENT PROJECT EXAMPLES.

We have investigated various large-scale accidents in the maritime industry, including:

• Bulk carrier – grounding during manoeuvre within a port,
• Offshore Boom crane – manufacture/design/operation collapse during Test-load,
• RTG crane – Structural fatigue during transportation,
• Wind energy turbines – Vessel transport/weather/structural securing analysis to define the cause that had the effect of the internal fuel tanks to be ruptured in a vessel hold.

For many investigations additional services are required. MBM Consultancy has an established list of many 3rd party relations to immediately work together on any Accident investigation.

Equally important is the co-operation with leading specialists, therefore we co-operate with:

• Salvage operators
• Workshops (manufacture, repair, and demolition)
• Offshore Surveyors ( Only certified surveyors)
• Laboratory (including Universities)
• Weather data specialists
• Maritime Lawyers

At MBM Consultancy, we present technical details in various formats – scientific notation, legal notation, and a layman’s notation – to assist clients and maritime lawyers with a full understanding of any in-depth technical analysis. We provide a thorough investigation and results that identify the root cause to satisfy any insurance claim.
