Shared Structural Inspection (SSI) enables the owner to take part in the structural inspection of the unit. The inspection scope is shared between the owner and class.

SHARE:

Structural inspection requires planning and the mobilization of the class surveyor(s) and owner’s personnel to perform the survey.  In some cases, a change in operation also calls for the cancellation or re-scheduling of planned inspection activities.

With the approved survey arrangement SSI, the owner can perform parts (up to 50%) of the inspection scope without involving class. Read more in our rules "DNVGL-RU-OU-0300" available here.

The main benefits you will get with Shared Structural Inspection:

• SSI enables shorter mobilization time 
• Provides better utilization and flexibility by inspection activities being performed when opportunities arise in operations
• The owner is more involved and has more control over the structural integrity
