In the shipping industry all aspects as mentioned in the previous sections come together on a smaller scale.

A special example of our services is the Thordon bearing inspection. This inspection provides the shipping technicians a good idea of the state of the propeller-shaft without demounting the whole axis. This saves a huge amount of time and when it appears that there are no damages on the  axis the ship can continue its service and a lot of time and money can be  saved. Tecson Inspections has provided this services already many times throughout Europe.

Besides the Thordon inspection there are many other items on a ship, which can be
a subject for inspection.

These are items such as; coolers from
gas tankers, pumps, engines, pipelines,
vessels and gearboxes.

The main  reasons for an inspection are;
- Troubleshooting
- Retrieval of lost items
- RBI (risk based inspection)
- Commissioning, null inspection
