About Us

Hunter Marine Surveyors was established in 1999 by Captain Andrew Graver and Captain Louis Koutelas who have over 75 years combined seagoing and marine surveying experience. The company is now the largest marine surveying company in the port of Newcastle with a professional team of 14 who have extensive knowledge and experience in all aspects of marine surveying. 

Our mission is to "Provide an ever evolving service that meets the requests of our clients today and forward into the future". By keeping pace with technology we can provide high quality surveying services and products. Utilising advances in information technology allows us to provide our customers with cost effective high quality surveys in short time frames. 

Our focus on technology and customer satisfaction saw the creation of CargoMax software solutions. CargoMax  software  provides fast, accurate, and reliable results for various types of marine surveys. It is seen by many as an industry standard, and is used by thousands of seafarers as well as surveying companies in many bulk ports around the world.

​HMS expanded to the Pilbara in mid 2017, surveying ships loading iron ore in Dampier and Port Walcott for RTIO. This branch has developed many key improvements to trimming practices helping reduce delays during loading. Our newly formed team includes many years of iron ore experience resulting in excellent results for our client.
