Self-assessment is essential for progress and consistentcontinuous improvement, for understanding ofourselves as learners, for an increasingly complexunderstanding of tasks and goals, and for strategicknowledge of how to go about improving.

The Offshore Vessel Inspection Database (OVID) has beendeveloped by OCIMF in response to OCIMF membersrequest for a standardized offshore vessel inspectionsystem. This broadly follows the format of ‘SIRE’.Recognition that the offshore industry has differentprocesses and procedures than the tanker world forassurance and chartering has been taken into account.

To have good OVID records is important for Offshorevessels. Many OVID observations can be avoided by goodpreparations. To have an external entity visit the vessel fora pre-inspection a couple of days before an OVIDinspection is often a very profitable investment.

We also provide services to inspect offshore vessel as perIMCA CMID. Accredited IMCA inspectors can inspect atshort notice..
