End-to-end overhaul project management

Arc Ship manages engine overhaul projects with a focus on timelines, quality and Class compliance. We bridge the gap between ship, maker, workshop and Class to ensure smooth execution and clear accountability.

What we manage

  • Overhaul planning: scope definition, timeline, resource planning and risk register.
  • Parts sourcing & logistics: OEM parts procurement, bonded import handling and expedited shipping where required.
  • Workshop coordination: selection of approved shops, shop scheduling and technical supervision.
  • Technical supervision: on-site and remote supervision, maker representative liaison and QA checks.
  • Testing & commissioning: pre-commissioning checks, run-in supervision and post-overhaul performance tests.
  • Documentation & Class handover: overhaul dossiers, measurements, NDT and final certification support.

Why use a managed approach?

Major overhauls involve many moving parts — lead times, spares, workshop capacity and Class requirements. Our managed approach reduces schedule risk, centralises communications and ensures technical accountability throughout the project.

Project example — overhaul delivered on schedule

Anonymised summary from a recent project:

Example

A main engine overhaul required urgent parts, local shop work and Class reinspection. Arc Ship managed parts procurement, coordinated a local approved shop for machining and supervised reassembly and testing. Engine returned to service with signed documentation and successful Class handover.

Outcome: reduced downtime by proactive scheduling and concurrent logistics planning.

Frequently asked — Engine overhauls

Can you manage overhauls for all common engine makers?

We manage overhauls for most mainstream makers (MAN, Wartsila, Hyundai-MAN, etc.) and work with maker reps where required.

How long does a typical main engine overhaul take?

Duration varies by scope — minor overhauls (partial) can be days; full shop overhauls typically range from several weeks to months depending on parts and shop capacity.

Do you coordinate NDT and re-certification?

Yes — we arrange required NDT (UT, MPI, DP) and prepare the documentation needed for Class and regulatory acceptance.
