In September our Reconditioning Centre in Shanghai carried out a a major reconditioning and field service order for an Iranian-owned tanker that was docked in a Chinese shipyard. This example shoes well the breadth of QuantiServ’s offering.

The following components were reconditioned:

  • 8 piston rods
  • 7 piston crowns
  • 7 cylinder covers
  • 6 exhaust valves
  • 7 crosshead pins
  • plus a number of smaller, related components

We also sourced for the customer a couple of new crosshead and crankpin bearings while we re-babbitted others, such as for example guide shoes.

QuantiServ engineers also carried out the overhaul work on board, supervised the oil flushing and attended the seatrial after the docking. We also replaced the stern tube shaft seals and in-situ polished some of the crankpin journals.

All the work was completed in 32 days.
