When meeting strong demand is not an option, for operators of fleets that travel to remote or untouched places, delays in getting spare parts become very expensive and cause fleets to remain away from operation for a much longer period. A delay of several weeks for important ICCP anodes, MGPS electrodes or PHE gasket kits could cause operations to stop, creating big financial penalties and upsetting regular timelines for voyages. This problem constantly endangers both profits and the ability to work effectively.
We realize at Sealong Marine that every minute of downtime costs you time and money. The solution removes the delay and allows your ship to be back in use without any location limits.
Our Solution: Worldwide Logistics Powered by Strategic Inventory
A global logistics network for spare parts owned by Sealong Marine works to handle cases of delayed delivery. The main strength of this capability is our stockpile, totaling over $10 million USD, of critical spare parts for major systems, for example:
Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) Systems Comprise of Anodes, Reference Electrodes and Cables
Marine Growth Prevention Systems (MGPS), consisting of Electrodes and Control Units
Plate Heat Exchangers include plates (which makes contact), gaskets (that insulates them) and frames (which supports them).
Because of the available stock and relationships with renowned international logistics companies, we are able to quickly transport our goods to any major or secondary port worldwide. If your ship is located in Singapore, Rotterdam, Santos or any emerging regional port, our worldwide network is ready to get your needed part there rapidly.
Tangible Benefits for Your Fleet Operations
Global Spare Parts Logistics from Sealong Marine gives businesses important benefits in their operations.
Less Time Off-Hire: The biggest advantage is much less vessel downtime. Air or expedited sea shipment of critical spares allows us to save considerable time between the moment of failure detection and the part arriving. By using proper maintenance, your ship returns to sea sooner to make more money.
Reduced Demurrage and Off-Hire Costs: Avoiding one hour of downtime means spending less on demurrage and fewer days with the equipment off hire. Having fast access to spare parts saves your company money because it prevents avoidable costs.
Operational Continuity in Remote Areas: Because of our presence worldwide, operations take place where ordinary shipping serves fewer clients. You find assurance that important components can still reach your vessel no matter the location which helps prevent long delays.
Predictable Repairs, Reduced Risk: Being sure parts can be accessed promptly enables better preparation for repairs and therefore less risk if equipment stops working. It makes it possible to fix problems more quickly during port visits, maintaining the on-time schedule.
