Facilitating customers is our goal while anticipating and solving potential service impasse is part of our daily life.

This is the case of speed-log replacements…In the pictures Fortunato, one of our “senior” skilled technicians, is busy working on a replacement supported by divers. It is a fact that this service requires rather unusual teamwork and specific expertise, as you may see.

This particular job was carried out overnight to ensure a two-day completion deadline.

The replacement was performed at sea and the dry dock was not necessary for the ship. For this type of assistance we provide our customers with various technical solutions that facilitate them to avoid resorting to the dry dock.

 

Following Covid lockdown period, we acknowledged a general increase in retrofit service and specifically in speed log replacement; so far, we have replaced 10 of them.

The speed log is a device used to measure the speed of a moving vessel and needs appropriate maintenance for optimum performance.

The speed is determined with reference to water flowing by the hull (water reference speed) or to the seabed (ground reference speed). The device is referred to as a log due to the obsolete practice of using wood logs for detecting how fast a ship is moving.

It is necessary to make sure that accurate measurements of vessel speeds are available even in challenging conditions at sea, as they are the key to monitoring ship performance.

The speed log therefore becomes an invaluable travel companion!
