Olympia Ocean Carriers pays the utmost attention to the efficient running of each individual vessel's planned maintenance system. All crew members not only have the appropriate training and full understanding of the vessel's maintenance system according to manufacturers and classification society requirements, but can also manage the appropriate documentation, mandatory as per ISM.
The department's personnel make frequent visits on board all the vessels, to access and monitor their performance and physical condition. With the well established planned and detailed maintenance programmes on board, and by keeping in close contact with the Master and the Crew of each vessel it is ensured that all the company's instructions and guidelines are strictly followed. Thus, Olympia's long standing policy of keeping each vessel in well above average condition, is achieved.
The department also maintains continuous contact and personal relationships with major dockyards around the world enabling us to provide expert supervision, whilst reducing costs of major repairs, routine dockings, lay-up and reactivation, and conversions and major refits. All such activities are closely monitored and regulated by budget compliance and time-frame compliance.
