What We Offer

Professional Marine Surveys in Singapore

A marine survey is a professional inspection of a vessel, its cargo, or related marine assets conducted by a qualified, independent surveyor. Singapore Marine Agency (SGMA) provides fully independent surveys at all Singapore ports — PSA Tanjong Pagar, Jurong Port, Keppel Terminal, Pasir Panjang Terminal, and all anchorage areas.

Our surveyors follow IMO, SOLAS, and MARPOL standards in every engagement. As an MPA-licensed agency, our survey reports are accepted worldwide by all major insurers, P&I clubs, and classification societies.

Singapore is the world's second-busiest port by container throughput and the leading bunkering hub in Asia. Our deep local knowledge and established relationships with port authorities and maritime stakeholders give our clients a decisive operational advantage.
