Abstract

The offshore surveyor, either as an employee or on a freelance or consultant basis, performs a number of duties and tasks associated with the particular role undertaken. In the actual execution of these duties and tasks, the offshore surveyor takes on certain legal responsibilities and liabilities, directly and indirectly related to the employer, the client or third parties. This paper discusses the legal responsibilities and liabilities of the offshore surveyor, and how the associated risks can be managed.
