Purchase and Sales Inspections As a guaranteed independent expert, Albion’s team of surveyors can safeguard a client’s interests by conducting on-site purchase and sale vessel inspections. We help our clients to identify actual or potential safety and operational issues with a detailed report on a vessel’s condition. The vessel is thoroughly inspected using Engineering Model Configuration Inspection (EMCI) standards.

 

Riding Squads in Voyage Repairs  Albion Marine Solutions Ltd. carries out voyage repairs and sea-going maintenance, providing riding repair teams all over the world. Our team is composed by trained and certified fitters, welders, GRE fitters, electricians, skilled and trained Fitters for Main and Auxiliary engine major overhauls and technicians to ensure safe and efficient repairs and retrofits on board of the ships at sea or in ports. We carry out full range of mechanical, piping and steel work at anchorage or at berth.   Albion Marine has capability and expertise to take up voyage repairs onboard all types of the vessels. The voyage repairs are carried out onboard the vessels without hampering the routine operation of the vessels and thus no commercial loss for the clients. Albion can take up voyage repairs or work in the shipyard for new build and during routine dry-dock repairs with the Riding Squads.
Riding Squads can perform: • Repairs and/or renewal of steel and/or GRE pipes,  • Fabrication jobs involving installation of ladder, stairs, access platforms, installation of lifting I-beam, • Retrofitting of any equipment/s on deck, engine room and accommodation  • Major overhaul of main engine and auxiliary engines • Repairs of auxiliary machinery – viz. winches, windlass, deck cranes, various types of pumps, air compressors etc.

Condition Assessment Survey
A precise, reliable, intuitive drone inspection of interior spaces Real-time HD feed to the surveyor or the ship owner A spherical carbon-fiber cage that protects the drone propellers to facilitate confined-area use Repeatedly tested reliability in terms of capability to pass through vessel portholes Photogrammetry software for a 3D imaging option
Combined use with LIDAR V1 & HF1 technology for on-board processing and real-time analysis Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) that facilitates accurate 3D mapping in GPS-denied environments, such as within interior spaces, underground, or near large structures. 3D modelling of the inspected space Locating, quantifying, and measuring faults precisely A simpler way to spot faults than numerous time-consuming photo comparisons with an internal structures map Time and project cost savings Easier volume and dimensional calculations

Digital Twins

Albion Marine Solutions aims to provide new industry tools that will enable vessel brokers, project managers, and inspectors to remotely access vessels, saving them time and money while lowering the risk of unforeseen conditions and change orders.   A digital twin is a digital representation of a physical entity or framework. Data can be analyzed, and systems can be monitored by combining the virtual and physical worlds in simulations to avoid unintended consequences, reduce downtime, discover new opportunities, and even plan for the future. The technology underlying digital twins has evolved to include large objects such as machinery, buildings, and even ships.
Benefits of the Digital Twin in Shipping  1. Fleet Optimization Through Virtual Ship Control System Transition 2. Improving Port and Terminal Operations 3. Situational awareness in terms of operational parameters 4. Supply Chain Optimization from Start to Finish 5. Increased Security Ensures Safety

Drone Services Albion Marine’s R&D team has come up with a unique way to carry out certain survey and/or inspection requirements using a purpose-built drone base. This drone utilization is a highly sophisticated, safe, efficient and cost-effective approach. The many advantages of using a drone include: • Safety: Inspectors remain a safe distance while getting a close-up camera view. • Prevention: The relative low cost of drone inspections is prompting many companies to use them to do inspections more often to detect potential issues earlier and avoid expensive repairs. •  Data: The archivable data obtained by a drone provides a meticulous record of a major asset’s condition over time. • Recompense: Using a drone to assess the condition of a damaged or dysfunctional asset can speed up the payment of a liability insurance claim and reduce any related costly downtime.
