Dry Docking and Repairs – Maximizing Vessel Lifespan

At Veles Ship Management, our dry docking and repair services focus on keeping vessels in optimal condition while minimizing downtime. Here’s how we ensure this:

  • Full Dry Dock Management: We handle every aspect of the dry docking process—from pre-inspections to coordinating with shipyards and securing cost-effective contracts—ensuring smooth, timely execution.
  • Hull and Propeller Maintenance: We perform hull cleaning, coating, and polishing to reduce drag and improve fuel efficiency. Propellers and rudders are polished and adjusted for better performance and durability.
  • Inspections and Certifications: We coordinate with classification societies and regulatory bodies to conduct necessary class inspections and certifications, ensuring vessels comply with international safety and environmental regulations.
  • Machinery Overhauls: Critical machinery like engines and ballast systems are overhauled and repaired during dry docking to enhance reliability and longevity.
  • Upgrades and Retrofitting: We implement system upgrades or install new technologies (e.g., emission-reducing scrubbers) to keep your fleet competitive and environmentally compliant.

Our efficient dry docking process ensures your vessels are thoroughly serviced and returned to operation quickly, keeping them compliant, safe, and efficient.
