Ship maintenance and repair

Ship maintenance and repair involve the regular inspection, servicing, and fixing of a vessel to ensure it remains safe, reliable, and efficient. Maintenance includes routine tasks like cleaning, lubricating parts, and checking systems, while repairs address specific issues such as broken equipment or structural damage. These activities prevent breakdowns, extend the ship’s lifespan, and ensure compliance with safety standards. Skilled technicians and specialized tools are used to perform these tasks, often during scheduled drydocks or port stays, to keep the ship operating smoothly and safely at sea.
