Carisbrooke Shipping’s fleet technical management team is able to carry out the effective planning of dry dock and other major repairs, retrofits and conversions, as well as supervision of these services, to a high standard.
Vessel visit to identify specific docking works and defect rectification work.
Given the size of fleets for which Carisbrooke provides technical management, there can be frequent scheduled dry dockings, easily reaching 15 dockings in any one year.
Most vessels are managed on a five-year docking program, with an intermediate docking survey completed “in water”.
Specifications and full turnkey project management are carried out utilizing a powerful software package with a database of a large number of completed specifications and thousands of individual detailed jobs. This also means Carisbrooke Shipping is able to produce detailed specifications, including almost any works, within 24 hours, should this ever be required for emergency docking and repairs.
Retrofitting of new and replacement equipment and project work, as well as full vessel conversions and lengthening, can be managed using the same methodology, and has been done so with great success.
