Features of our underwater Repair & Maintenance

Here are some key features of underwater repair and maintenance services:

1. Advanced Technology

High-resolution camera:

High-resolution cameras are utilized for close examination of the hull and other parts of the ship that are usually underwater and there is a real-time view of the areas being inspected by the diver.

Robotic Systems:

We use robotic systems for areas that are not safe and cannot be accessed by divers. These robots are capable of providing more detailed inspections and also can contribute to repairs.

Ultrasonic Testing:

Ultrasonic testing is used to check the strength of the vessel or determine the rate of thinning of the metals.

2. Skilled and Certified Divers

Expertise in Complex Repairs:

Our certified divers are capable of performing complex and difficult tasks of repair which cannot be easily done by any ordinary mechanic.

Safety protocols:

Bengal Wave takes the utmost precautions to guarantee the security of divers and the vessels they work on.

Problem-Solving:

We make sure that issues are identified quickly and addressed to minimize vessel downtime.

3. Rapid Response and Availability

24/7 Service:

We at Bengal Wave offer a rapid response service, available 24/7 to address any emergency repairs or inspections.

On-Site Repairs:

In many cases, repairs can be made to the ship while it is still afloat so there is no need to take it to a dry dock and thus saves time and money.

4. Eco-Friendly Practices

Use of Non-Toxic Cleaning Agents:

Our cleaners are safe for marine life and are utilized while cleaning hulls and other components.

Waste Management:

To make the repair operations as environmentally friendly as possible, all trash generated during the repair process, we disposed of in the most ecologically responsible manner possible.

Benefits of Underwater Repair & Maintenance

Avoiding Dry-Docking Costs:

The usage of dry-docking, which includes expensive labor, port, and downtime charges, can be avoided with the use of underwater repairs. Since these are expensive repairs, it is more economical to do them while the vessel is still operational.

Improved Performance:

A ship will need more fuel to move if its hull gets clogged with barnacles and other debris. The ship will move quicker and use less fuel if its body is cleaned underwater, which reduces drag. The ship stays swift and easy to control when parts like the rudder and propellers are maintained and cleaned underwater.

Safety and Rules and Regulations:

We ensure that the ship is well-built and free of flaws, our maintenance procedures guarantee that it can be utilized safely and effectively.

Extending the Life of Ships:

The saltwater destroys the ships’ hull, leading to rust and wear. Through our routine underwater maintenance, this is avoided, prolonging the ship’s lifespan.

Less time out of service:

Your ship doesn’t have to stop operating because our on-site repair and maintenance services allow it to remain in the ocean. By doing this, you can cut down on downtime and keep your ship running on schedule with minimal delays. Maintaining your ship’s operations will minimize disruptions and save costly delays.

Safety and Following Rules: 

With Bengal Wave, you can be sure that your ship meets all the important safety and environmental rules. Our thorough inspections and repairs make sure your ship is safe to operate, which protects both your crew and your cargo. Following these rules also means you avoid fines or penalties for non-compliance.

Protecting the Ocean:

We utilize environmentally friendly procedures because we care about the environment and want to keep the water and marine life safe. Our techniques are made to leave as little trace as possible in the marine environment. This practice not only maintains the health of the ocean but also demonstrates your company’s environmental responsibility.
