Muscat Yacht Surveyors

ACP Surveyors is an independent yacht surveying and marine consultancy company operating across the Sultanate of Oman, with Muscat as the focal point for our activity on the Arabian Peninsula. As the Gulf region continues to mature into a serious cruising and refit destination, an increasing number of owners base their yachts here on a seasonal or permanent basis, and our surveyors provide the same uncompromising technical standard in Muscat that defines our work in the Mediterranean.

Muscat sits at a strategic crossroads between the Mediterranean fleet, the Red Sea transit routes and the wider Indian Ocean, making it a natural staging point for vessels moving between Europe, the Gulf and Asia. Owners repositioning their yachts for the winter season, or preparing for long ocean passages, rely on rigorous condition assessments before committing to extended voyages. Our team is positioned to attend vessels in Muscat, Marina Bandar Al Rowdha, Al Mouj Marina and the surrounding commercial and private berths, coordinating each attendance with the owner, captain and management company.

Our multidisciplinary experts deliver the full range of ACP services in Oman, including pre-purchase and condition surveys, valuation surveys for banks and insurers, damage inspections, underwater hull inspections and non-destructive testing, thermal imaging, and paint and coating assessments. Because every discipline is executed in-house, we maintain a single, consistent standard of reporting and avoid the fragmentation that comes from subcontracting specialist tasks to third parties. This integrated approach is particularly valuable in a region where marine infrastructure is still developing and access to trusted independent technical expertise cannot be taken for granted.

The environmental conditions of the Gulf and the Sea of Oman place particular demands on a yacht. Sustained high temperatures, intense ultraviolet exposure, elevated humidity and highly saline waters accelerate the degradation of coatings, seals, cooling systems and electrical installations. Our surveyors understand how these factors manifest over time and know precisely where to look for the early signs of corrosion, osmotic activity, coating breakdown and system fatigue. This regional knowledge allows us to give owners a realistic picture of a vessel’s true condition rather than a generic assessment.

For owners engaged in a purchase, our role is to bring transactional clarity. We provide a comprehensive technical description of the yacht’s condition, highlight the areas requiring attention, and propose constructive resolutions that allow brokers, lawyers and buyers to bring a deal to completion with confidence. For owners already in the fleet, we support refit planning, maintenance management, warranty matters and statutory compliance, drawing on a twenty-year database built from hundreds of surveys, new builds and refit projects worldwide.

Our surveyors attending Muscat combine deep marine engineering experience with advanced diagnostic tools and an ethical, super partes approach. With no external commercial interests, our only obligation is to the accuracy of the report and the interests of the client who commissioned it. Whether you are acquiring a yacht in the region, preparing for an ocean passage, or maintaining a vessel based in Oman, ACP Surveyors provides the independent technical authority required to protect your asset.
