Technical questions we help answer.
Most enquiries start with a decision: whether to buy, how to read the condition of a ship, or whether a design works. The service that fits depends on the question.
Buying or selling a vessel
A pre-purchase or condition survey, and technical due diligence where needed, help buyers understand condition and risk before they commit.
Marine surveys →Building a new vessel
Construction-stage inspections, shipyard coordination and specification review keep the owner’s technical position clear through to delivery.
Newbuilding supervision →Assessing damage or repairs
Damage and repair surveys record what happened, review proposed repairs and follow up after the work where required.
Damage and repair surveys →Reviewing a design or stability
Plan review, stability calculations and technical evaluation support design and operational decisions, within the limits of qualification and approval.

Technical leadership
Design, newbuilding and classification survey experience.
Conscious Marine was co-founded by an IIT Kharagpur alumnus. The team’s background includes newbuilding survey and project management at ClassNK and Germanischer Lloyd (GL, now part of DNV), and outfit design management at Mazagon Dock Limited.
The practice focuses on accurate vessel assessment and practical technical advice. Conscious Marine is not a classification society and does not issue statutory certificates.
