Commissioning testing of BWMS is not yet compulsory but even the most carefully selected BWMS can fail to meet D-2 requirements if there is a breakdown in communication in the installation phase. Albion Marine has been busy helping Shipowners with issues regarding BWMS operations. Pre-commissioning, commissioning, BWTS troubleshooting and health checks, crew training , and BWMP updates are part of our standard services. Riviera

The impending accelaration of decarbonization efforts to Meer the IMO's 2050 targets is expected also to speed up the development of new more environmentally-friendly engine designs. Aside from the very low sulphur fuels, engines of the future are expected to be powered by a number of alternative fuels as well including methanol, LPG, biofuels and even ammonia.

And the key to having all engine cylinders running is efficient cylinder lubrication. More information: Offshore Energy 

As the COVID-19 pandemic has slow down, our team is ready to work. We have been of great support to our clients, colleagues and business partners during this crisis and we are now looking to help our clients with current and upcoming projects.

The USCG published MSIB 14-20 “COVID-19: Ballast Water Management (BWM) Extensions” due to disruptions in the supply chain and workforce due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The USCG has developed guidance based on the length of time needed for the extensions. Albion Marine Solutions team is ready to prepare your application for extension. Applications will need to be submitted identifying the ship plus supporting documentation:

• Proof of purchase
• Third-party documentation from a shipyard or BWMS manufacturer that a delay due to COVID-19 issues occurred.
• Plan for installing the BWMS, including previously completed items and schedule for completion of the BWMS installation project.

Albion Marine Solutions has extensive experience with USCG extension applications. Please contact our general office (This email address is being protected from spambots.
