Class approved shell plate underwater damage repairs to offshore semi-submersible platform without drydocking.

Discover how Subsea Global Solutions expertly repaired a corrosion hole in an offshore supply vessel’s bilge tank. Our Trinidad team delivered a class-approved shell plate replacement, restoring the 90-meter vessel to full operational readiness with minimal downtime.

In October, Subsea Global Solutions held its advanced underwater welding training course in our training center in Long Beach, providing a comprehensive 10-day program designed to hone practical skills and qualify participants for new joint geometries and/or new welding positions.

Underwater welding, especially underwater wet welding, is gaining more and more acceptance. This article from Welding & Cutting Magazine takes a deep dive into types, procedures, and codes.

Subsea Global Solutions was tasked with completing a routine propeller polishing and hull inspection for a commercial vessel docked at the Port of Palm Beach. This service, part of the vessel’s ongoing maintenance schedule, ensured optimal performance and efficiency.

A big thank you to Captain Kate for sharing a behind-the-scenes look at Subsea Global Solutions in action on a propeller polishing project.

By utilizing a multi-stage polishing process and diver / technicians trained in the proper analysis of the propeller condition, Subsea Global Solutions' process has proven to be an integral part of fuel efficiency programs. The benefits of maintaining a polished propeller have been known for years, but what has not been known is "how smooth is smooth"?

The client indicated that the tailshaft had shifted aft approximately 200 mm when the ship’s crew was doing maintenance on the shaft coupling. It resulted in the aft water seal losing contact with the liner, causing large amounts of water ingress into the stern tube.

When a propeller sustains damage beyond the straightening capabilities of even the largest press equipment, hydrodynamic corrections offer an innovative and effective solution.

Not all propeller damage can be straightened. When blades are fractured, chipped, or excessively bent, cropping becomes necessary. However, cropping an odd-numbered blade propeller presents unique challenges that must be carefully managed.

Subsea Global Solutions’ proprietary propeller straightening technology offers a far more efficient and cost-effective alternative to blade cropping.

Subsea Global Solutions completed a critical in-water steering seal repair on a cable vessel in San Diego. Our team rapidly designed, fabricated, and installed a custom packing gland housing, ensuring minimal downtime and keeping the vessel on schedule.

The installation of complete SOx scrubber systems is entirely possible without taking the vessel out of the water. Subsea Global Solutions' involvement is focused on precision cutting of the hull penetrations for the sea chest openings and overboard spool pipe installation below the waterline.

The client was in need of a turn-key—class approved—permanent repair. This included a single contractor that would manage the internal technical repair team, commercial diver team, prefabrication of the new spool pieces with flanges, final application of the 5-year warranty POLYFLAKE protective coating to 3000 microns on the new spool pipes, and achieving final class approval for the full repair procedure.

In 2024, Subsea Global Solutions completed a complex overhaul of eight thrusters on the La Muralla oil rig, led by our Curaçao-based team, ensuring the rig's peak performance through rapid, on-site servicing.

The benefits of removing a damaged bow thruster afloat are many. The customer was able to prevent further damage to the bearings and gears caused by the presence of seawater in the gear housing and the procedures allows the units to be overhauled prior to the vessels next dry-dock—or, they can be re-installed afloat by Subsea Global Solutions, which would help to eliminate the need for additional tug cost.

The project was executed with two Subsea Global Solutions teams working around the clock. While the vessel trimming process was in motion, the team onboard the vessel began to drain the oil from the thruster while the dive team began removing the bow thruster tunnel gratings to gain full access to the bow thruster.
