During the outbreak of the Coronavirus, remote testing significantly reduced the risk of infection by allowing testing activities to be performed in areas with access restrictions. 

RINA successfully faced this challenge with experience gained from almost 300 remote surveys carried out aboard ships over the previous year.

Using advanced software, RINA technicians could issue the same type of service on inspections, allowing for remote testing and certification of marine products. This advanced software enables RINA technicians to achieve an equivalent judgement/view on the inspection.

Key advantages of remote inspection techniques

• better management of logistical issues and production time
• decreased request time
• execution of the testing activities without downtime and a more efficient testing schedule
• a more sustainable process taking into account environmental protection
