Situation:
Arrived onboard a Chemical vessel in Southern Spain to inspect the Boiler – view through the burner opening quickly revealed that, the furnace had sagged from the sides, Furnace Shell, Bottom Tube plate, and waterside boiler tubes had been ripped and melted due to lack of water.
Challenges:
- Vessel was given 6 month delivery period for new boiler supply by manufacturer, meaning that the ship would be off-hire during a prolonged period.
- To fabricate new furnace shell plate, and waterside tube plate and replace all boiler tubes within the time charter plan.
