Marine Surveys & Audits, executed with precision.
STC Marine Services delivers independent surveys, vetting preparation and compliance audits for owners, operators, charterers and insurers — worldwide.
Three decades at sea, distilled into measurable assurance.
Founded and led by Capt. Stylianos Chatzigiakoumis, STC Marine Services brings a master mariner’s judgement to every attendance. We work for shipowners, P&I clubs, charterers, and underwriters who need clarity — fast, defensible reports with photographic evidence and actionable findings.
Our work is independent, discreet and built on direct seagoing experience: tanker, dry bulk, container and offshore. We attend at major ports worldwide. Remote inspections and audits are also performed in line with OCIMF guidelines.
A complete maritime assurance practice.
From pre-purchase due diligence to PSC attendance and remote VDR audits, the practice covers the full lifecycle of vessel risk.
