Rightship Inspection Questionnaire is the most comprehensive inspection tool in dry bulk. In 2021, RightShip announced a new, expanded inspections questionnaire designed to enhance its risk assessment service and support shipowners and managers in improving dry bulk standards beyond compliance.
Effective 30 June 2023 RISQ 3.0 was implemented for inspections following response to industry comments, and in accordance with the most recent industry recommendations and regulation.
The RightShip Inspection Ship Questionnaire covers questions related to safety, environmental protection, maintenance, industry recommendations, and good practices. For inspection purposes, the vessels covered in RightShip inspection are grouped into five categories:
1. Bulk carriers that are carrying solid bulk cargoes other than grain
2. Bulk carriers that are carrying grain cargoes
3. General cargo ships that are carrying general or container cargoes
4. Container ships that are carrying container cargoes
5. Livestock carriers that are carrying live export of sheep, cattle, and goats (TBC)
