Technical ship management covers superintendence, planned maintenance, drydocking, Class and Flag State liaison, machinery reliability and fuel diagnostics for the vessels you own. The full scope is described on the Nanak Ship Management technical management page, and we explain how it applies to your fleet.
A planned maintenance system schedules every recurring job on a vessel by running hours or calendar interval, so work is done on time and recorded for Class. It is a core part of the technical management service from Nanak Ship Management, and our board on this page shows how a schedule fills a year.
It is an independent technical audit of a vessel before you buy, covering hull, machinery, records and Class status so you see condition and likely costs first. Nanak Ship Management lists it in its services overview, and we can explain the scope for your vessel type.
Nanak Ship Management lists marine spares and procurement as a service alongside Flag State and Class liaison, covering engine, deck and safety requirements for vessels under management. Details are on the Nanak services page, and you can send a request through our builder on this page.
Liaison means handling surveys, certificates, conditions of class and communication with Class societies and the Flag State on your behalf. Nanak Ship Management lists it among its published services, and the superintendent keeps the vessel ready for each survey.
