EXXONMOBIL MESQAC STANDARDS – Marine Equipment Compliance & Solutions by SEANAV
At SEANAV, we specialize in helping vessel operators and shipowners meet EXXONMOBIL MESQAC STANDARDS (Marine Equipment and Safety Quality Assurance Criteria). These standards are critical for tankers and support vessels operating in ExxonMobil’s charter or terminal areas. Full compliance ensures vessel eligibility, operational safety, and uninterrupted trade in ExxonMobil terminals.
The MESQAC guidelines cover critical systems such as navigation, communication, emergency power, fire detection, gas detection, and voyage data recording. SEANAV provides full technical audits, rectifications, documentation, and system upgrades to bring marine electronics in line with these rigorous standards.
Our marine engineers are trained in the specific requirements of ExxonMobil MESQAC. We assist with equipment evaluations, bridge layout corrections, and ensure backup systems function reliably.
