HAT (Harbor Acceptance Test) and SAT (Sea Acceptance Test) processes are of critical importance in verifying systems and operational capabilities prior to vessel delivery. For this reason, in test planning and execution, we adopt an approach that is not based solely on checklists, but one that reflects real operating conditions.
Starting with the preparation of HAT and SAT procedures, scenario-based test plans are developed in line with the vessel’s operational profile and duty cycle. In this way, testing goes beyond being a formality in which technical items are simply checked off, and becomes a validation process that reflects actual operating conditions.
During testing, technical representation is provided on behalf of the ship owner, and coordination is carried out with shipyard teams, classification societies, and equipment manufacturers. Through the verification, documentation, and technical evaluation of test results, pre-delivery risks are made more visible.
Through disciplined planning and professional execution, HAT and SAT processes become an important tool for providing technical assurance during vessel delivery. This approach also contributes to reducing operational issues that may arise after delivery.
Scope of Services
- Preparation of HAT and SAT procedures

- Coordination with shipyard teams, classification societies, and equipment manufacturers
- Verification and documentation of test results
- Support in identifying delivery and operational risks
Our Approach
In testing processes, the objective is not merely to complete a procedure, but to technically demonstrate whether the vessel is ready for real operating conditions. For this reason, we place importance on conducting tests through a scenario-based and operation-focused approach.
