TMSA Audits
The Tanker Management and Self Assessment (TMSA) program serves as a vital framework for enhancing safety and operational standards within tanker operations. It allows shipping companies to evaluate and elevate their safety management systems by assessing leadership, risk management, environmental responsibility, and continuous improvement. TMSA audits are especially important for oil majors and charterers seeking trustworthy and compliant operators.
Our expert-led TMSA audit services provide a detailed review of operational systems, aligned with OCIMF standards and industry benchmarks. We conduct gap analyses, offer actionable insights, and assist in strengthening safety protocols to improve overall performance and vetting readiness. Our goal is to empower companies to go beyond compliance and adopt a culture of excellence.
