Consultancy

Whatever your project, Lloyd's Register can offer practical solutions designed to improve performance and reduce business risk.

We offer a number of services to help you assess your ship's condition or extend its life, and we can help you address the risks associated with purchasing or chartering a second-hand vessel.

Assessing risk

In co-operation with a leading global laboratory we can carry out detailed fuel quality risk assessment surveys or assess the condition of your ship's machinery by analysing the quality of your lubricants.

Our technical investigations services provide rapid assistance in the solution of engineering failures or performance deficiencies, enabling you to draw on our extensive engineering knowledge and experience.

We can also help you to assess and manage the operational, technical and project risks connected with your shipboard operations and, in the event of a casualty, our award-winning, 24-hour ship emergency response service can provide integrated support to your contingency arrangements.

Shipbuilding support services

In addition, if you are a shipowner or financier, you can take advantage of our shipbuilding support services, benefiting from our technical knowledge and project management expertise across all stages of the shipbuilding process - including due diligence work.

Maintenance management

Developing a maintenance management program is not as straight forward as people believe. The application of calendar based maintenance is not always the most effective route to ensuring reliability.

We have considerable knowledge of the range of tools and techniques that need to be considered when putting together a maintenance program and can help you determine a maintenance strategy that would best suit your operation.

Our Maintenance Strategy Optimisation (MSO) service provides an assessment of your existing maintenance program, which is then compared against best practice. From this comparison, areas for improvement are identified and recommendations can then be put together for an improvement initiative.
