The decision to merge The Salvage Association and BMT Murray Fenton into the new company BMT Marine & Offshore Surveys Ltd, presents us with a unique opportunity to combine the world-renowned knowledge, expertise and track record of two respected companies. But this is just the beginning and we are already going further, extending the scope of our operations and technical support to deliver a truly pioneering, global marine surveying and technical services consultancy.

The move allows BMT Marine & Offshore Surveys to respond to the changing requirements of the industry while continuing to provide world class technical consulting in core areas of loss prevention, casualty management and maritime risk. The coming years will see us continue to develop and build on the past success stories of both companies. We have already made early progress. In the same way in which we pioneered the assessment of shipyard risks, we are developing, in conjunction with industry stakeholders, new and innovative risk evaluation tools in sectors as diverse as container shipping, mega yachts, project cargoes, ports and terminals and offshore renewable energy.

Our worldwide network of offices is staffed by over a hundred highly qualified and experienced marine engineers, nautical surveyors, naval architects and electrical engineers, supported by in-house specialists in structures, hydrodynamics and simulation. We also provide seamless access to an unparalleled depth and breadth of skills across the 1200 strong BMT Group in welding and metallurgy, offshore instrumentation and monitoring and many other disciplines.

We regularly act on behalf of marine insurers, port authorities, governments, ship owners, cargo owners, charterers, offshore and onshore contractors, lawyers and other maritime interests. .
