Surveyors 51 Software for Surveyor

In the short time, I have received some emails and comments that requested the petroleum calculation software and ASTM Table. To fulfill it, I have loaded some free and simple software that may help surveyor to do their assignment in Bunker and Petroleum Survey. These software is not as complete as the version that selling online, but it’s handy and useful.

Just go to this link for downloading: http://sevensurveyor.com/software/. The list of software will be growing, I will load additional software when available.

Just leaving your comment about Software for Surveyor.

PS: If you need the complete calculation software you could search on the web, it is available to buy online. For the ASTM Table complete version, you could check at this link http://astm.org.
