Grain Surveys are critical to maintaining cargo integrity and ensuring compliance with international regulations. At Good Wood Marine Services, we specialize in thorough grain surveys for bulk carriers transporting wheat, barley, corn, and other grains. Our experienced surveyors inspect holds for cleanliness, dryness, and readiness prior to loading. During discharge, we monitor the condition, quantity, and handling of grain cargoes to prevent contamination and loss. We follow AIMS Code of Practice and port authority guidelines, ensuring each shipment meets export standards. Our service helps charterers, exporters, and receivers minimize disputes, maintain cargo quality, and achieve efficient turnaround at ports.
