Regulatory Compliance Survey
We generate a worklist prior to having a U.S. Coast Guard inspection or
conversion of an existing vessel to bring the vessel into U.S. Flag standards
for freight ships, tank ships or passenger vessels.

Maritime Administrations. |
This survey can be done in conjuntion with a condition and evalution
survey, to aid in a feisiblity study and in writing a ship yard specification.
PMDS is a duly recognized organization by the Government of Panama and
the Government of Belize in compliance with ISO 9002: 1994 under RuA accreditation

From a damage survey of your vessel we will provide a detailed outline
of recommendations on how to effect repairs to return the vessel to seaworthiness
and operation. We can oversee the repairs to ensure compliance. |
We can also write shipyard specifications which can be used for repair
bids and contracts. |
Stability Test Procedures
We determine the greatest passenger capacity of a small passenger vessel.
We measure the vessel to determine wind heel moment, oversee the preliminary

determined by a simplified stability test. |
