1 Fast worldwide underwater repairs

2 Fast worldwide underwater repairs We have a long and successful track record of performing complex permanent underwater repairs to thrusters, propellers, rudders, stern tube seals and damaged or corroded hulls. We pioneered these complex operations which once used to require drydocking but can now be carried out with the vessel afloat. By creating drydock-like conditions around the affected area we carry out repairs on vessels in port or at anchor. Normal commercial activities can continue without disruption, eliminating the loss of time, production and income that drydocking entails, as well as saving the expense of drydocking itself. Our aim is to provide the best quality of service for our customers without sacrificing our safety standards. For this reason we continue to invest in our quality objectives, from the highest management to the teams on the road performing the repair work. All this is done to make sure that we are always prepared for all operations, including those that present unexpected conditions. Hydrex offers turnkey underwater repair solutions to shipowners wherever and whenever they are needed. We help to find the best possible solution for any problem encountered below the water line. We mobilize our teams to any location around the globe to carry out repair work without the need for drydocking. All our projects are engineered and carried out in close cooperation with the customer and any third party suppliers. We evaluate the feasibility of an underwater repair, continue through design and construction of customized equipment, the successful execution of the repair or replacement and the subsequent follow-up. We take on, organize and execute the entire job, start to finish, relieving the customer of all the hassle of coordination, planning and supervision. Depending on their role, our staff are trained and qualified to prepare, perform or follow up the full range of these class-approved repair procedures. An effective, competent team consistently achieves results in the short periods of time usually available to ships with a tight schedule to maintain.
