Maritime compliance, handled start to finish
Marquis Crane Services provides independent third-party maritime inspection, load testing, and certification for shore-based material handling devices, floating cranes, and derricks.

When a crane is due for maritime certification, it can hang over your whole week. One missed requirement can ripple into vessel delays, overtime, and tense calls with customers. With Marquis Crane Services, you get a clear plan, an inspector who knows the maritime environment, and documentation delivered without chasing it. It is a relief to know the equipment is inspected, the load test is handled right, and your files are in order when someone asks.
Maritime equipment works in harsh conditions, salt air, heavy cycles, and tight timelines. A thorough inspection and the right load testing help you catch wear early, plan repairs on your terms, and extend the usable life of key components. That means fewer emergency callouts, less unplanned downtime, and better performance when you are under the gun to load, unload, or move critical materials.
Maritime compliance is detail-driven, and the wrong inspection approach can leave gaps that show up at the worst time. Marquis Crane Services is headquartered in Southern Maine and brings deep hands-on crane experience to every inspection, not just checklist work. You are also getting qualified personnel, including OSHA CFR 1919 Maritime Signatory credentials, TWIC access, and NCCCO certified mobile and tower crane inspectors. Reports are generated on-site using advanced inspection software, so you are not waiting days to know where you stand.
