The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies offers marine rope access inspection services that allow us to inspect vessels and offshore structures. The marine sector is incredibly important to modern society and global economics. However, like all industries, it is not without its risks, so safety is paramount, but maritime vessels and structures present unique challenges for those looking to inspect their safety and compliance with industry standards. Fortunately, our marine rope access inspectors use their specialized skillsets to carry out visual and NDT inspections in hard-to-reach places.
What is Marine Rope Access Inspection?
Marine rope access inspections evaluate ships and maritime structures in search of any signs of concern that may compromise the integrity of a ship, offshore structure, or the safety of personnel. These inspectors are adept at navigating difficult environments by using ropes, rigging systems, and harnesses to traverse structures. Their abilities help reduce the need for costly cranes and scaffolding, expediting the inspection process and minimizing the length of interruptions.

The Benefits of Rope Access Inspections
Rope access is perhaps the most cost-effective and efficient way to conduct nondestructive tests in challenging environments. Cranes, scaffolding, and other traditional methods certainly have their uses, but they’re far from ideal in difficult terrain environments. Rope access inspections are highly versatile and offer several unique advantages, including:
- Rapid mobilization and demobilization
- Reduced equipment and labor costs
- Minimized downtime
