PAMS Pacific Admiralty Maritime Services
Independent marine technical consultancy providing objective technical assessment, professional marine surveying and engineering support for maritime and offshore stakeholders.
About PAMS Pacific Admiralty Maritime Services
PAMS Pacific Admiralty Maritime Services is an independent Philippine technical consultancy based in Malate, Manila, Philippines.
The practice provides independent technical assessment and consultancy for shipowners, investors, charterers, vessel operators and offshore stakeholders requiring objective technical information and professional engineering insight.
PAMS focuses on marine surveying, marine engineering, offshore engineering and maritime regulatory compliance, with technical work undertaken according to the agreed scope, vessel or asset type, location, available documentation and client requirements.
Independent Technical Perspective
Maritime technical decisions often require reliable information that is separate from commercial interests. PAMS provides an independent technical perspective based on physical examination, technical documentation, available evidence and professional engineering assessment.
Our objective is to provide clear technical information that helps maritime stakeholders understand the condition, technical status and potential risks associated with a vessel, marine asset or offshore project.
Technical opinions and reports emphasize factual observations, evidence-based findings, transparency and practical decision support.
Marine Surveys & Inspections
PAMS Pacific Admiralty Maritime Services provides independent marine surveys and technical inspections for shipowners, vessel operators, charterers, investors and other maritime stakeholders requiring an objective assessment of vessel condition, equipment integrity and technical risk.
Survey and inspection assignments may cover vessel condition assessment, pre-purchase surveys, damage inspections, cargo-related surveys, machinery and equipment inspections, underwater inspection coordination where applicable, and specialist technical examinations according to the agreed scope of work.
Our approach combines practical shipboard experience with marine engineering knowledge and an understanding of applicable maritime regulations, classification requirements and industry standards.
Technical findings are documented through factual observations, supporting evidence and professional reporting. Where appropriate, reports identify deficiencies, potential risks and recommendations for further investigation, corrective action or maintenance planning.
Integration with Surveys & Engineering
Maritime regulatory compliance cannot always be assessed in isolation from the physical and technical condition of a vessel or offshore asset. Structural deterioration, machinery deficiencies, equipment limitations and operational weaknesses may have direct implications for risk management, maintenance planning and compliance performance.
PAMS connects independent survey findings with relevant engineering considerations and regulatory requirements, helping clients understand how identified deficiencies may affect technical risk, maintenance priorities and compliance objectives.
Where required by the agreed scope, survey findings can support technical recommendations, corrective-action planning, engineering reviews and the evaluation of proposed modifications or upgrades.
This integrated perspective enables maritime stakeholders to consider vessel condition, engineering requirements and regulatory obligations together, providing a more consistent basis for technical decision-making.
Maritime Regulatory Compliance & Technical Assurance
PAMS provides independent technical consultancy supporting maritime stakeholders in evaluating vessel condition, identifying technical deficiencies and understanding applicable regulatory and industry requirements.
Depending on the assignment, our technical work may involve the International Safety Management (ISM) Code, SOLAS, MARPOL, the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC 2006), classification requirements and applicable Flag State regulations.
Our technical background also encompasses industry frameworks and assessment requirements associated with OCIMF SIRE 2.0, RightShip RISQ 3.2 and the Tanker Management and Self Assessment (TMSA) programme.
These frameworks are considered in relation to the agreed scope of work, applicable criteria and evidence available for assessment. The objective is to help clients understand technical findings, evaluate potential compliance implications and identify appropriate areas for further investigation or corrective action.
Marine & Offshore Engineering Expertise
PAMS provides marine engineering and offshore technical consultancy for assignments involving vessels, marine systems, offshore assets and engineering projects, subject to the agreed technical scope, available information and access arrangements.
Relevant work may include technical evaluation of machinery and equipment, review of engineering documentation, repair and upgrade considerations, and specialist technical input for offshore systems and projects, including FPSO and SPM-related engineering matters where applicable.
Engineering observations and recommendations are developed with consideration of the asset's technical condition, available evidence, applicable requirements and the client's defined objectives. The nature and extent of any engineering review are established for each assignment.
Detailed service descriptions, specialist capabilities, project references and case studies are available through the full PAMS technical website.
