How to find costly heavy-lift mistakes before execution begins

22. June 2026 14:00 

The lift is not where most heavy lift operations go wrong.

By the time the cargo is on the hook, many of the critical decisions have already been made.

The method statement. The lifting arrangement. The transport route. The cargo preparation. The division of responsibility between suppliers.

When these are not challenged early, the result is often predictable: delay, damage, claims and costs that insurance may not fully cover.

This webinar gives you five practical checks used by experienced maritime professionals to spot the risk before execution begins.

I have seen heavy-lift projects succeed because someone asked the right question early. And I have seen expensive claims begin with one small detail everyone assumed was under control. This webinar is about spotting those risks before they become damage, delay or dispute.

What You will learn
  • How heavy-lift risks are created before execution begins
  • ​Which planning assumptions most often lead to damage, delay or dispute
  • ​How to challenge method statements, lifting plans and cargo preparation before they become claims
  • ​Where uninsured indirect losses usually appear after cargo damage
  • ​How experienced surveyors assess whether an operation is ready — or needs to be stopped and reviewed

Cargo Damage is just the tip of the iceberg

For every €1 of insured direct loss, there may be 2–5€ in uninsured indirect losses.

The visible loss is usually the damaged cargo. The larger cost is often hidden in the disruption that follows: claims handling, replacement production, customer pressure, delays, reputational damage, contractual penalties and supply chain recovery.

Direct Losses

  • Cargo Value

Indirect Losses

  • Time spent handling the claim
  • Cost of making or sourcing the cargo again
  • Lost trust from the client
  • Sales conversations you now have to repair
  • Reputation damage
  • Questions from ESG, safety or compliance teams
  • Contract penalties
  • Extra assembly or restart work
  • Replacement parts or materials
  • Delays in the supply chain
  • The cost of explaining what went wrong
  • ​And many more....

A €1 million cargo loss can become a €5 million business problem.
Insurance may only cover the first €1 million.
