Sensitive natural areas
Ensuring the Reliability and Performance of Your Assets
From bent shafts to gear or coupling faults, we can detect dozens of fault patterns to anticipate asset failures and ensure critical assets are continuously performing.
Our experience extends across different asset categories, including:
- Thrusters (e.g., main, bow, stern, retractable)
- Pumps (e.g., SW, FiFi, bilge, ballast, sewage)
- Marine and offshore cranes
- Gearbox (e.g., propulsion)
- Generators
- E-motors
- Compressors
- Fuel/oil separators
- Specific mission/marine equipment
- …
-
With I-care’s expertise in vibration measurements and the deployment executed across our fleet, we receive precise recommendations that enable us to take optimal actions to mitigate the risk of failure. Additionally, their agile approach accelerates this deployment and implementation process.
