    MARINE
    PROJECT CARGO

Marine Project Cargo programs vary greatly as they are some of the most specialized and highly risk-managed policies in the industry.  A typical project risk involves the shipment of equipment and machinery from anywhere in the world to a specific project construction site.

The Policy provides coverage for the physical loss or damage to the equipment during transit.  The Policy may also include Delay in Start-Up (DSU), coverage protecting the Assured for lost revenue arising from a covered cargo loss which delays the project’s “go-live“ date.

Our Marine Risk Management surveyors continuously collaborate with the Assured from the outset and will oversee, monitor, and physically attend the movements of all critical equipment for the entirety of the policy term.

ISC Marine welcomes brokers' engagement in the earliest Client discussions to better outline what information is required.
