Qualships Pty Ltd, renowned for its commitment to maritime quality and safety, has successfully completed a critical Exhaust Gas Cleaning System (EGCS) overboard pipe and spool piece renewal on an oil tanker. The maintenance operation took place in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. The original EGCS overboard stub piece and associated pipeline were severely corroded, compromising structural integrity and safety, resulting in minor leakage and non-compliance with classification requirements. Immediate action was essential to restore the vessel's operational readiness and ensure adherence to maritime safety regulations. Qualships undertook comprehensive safety and risk assessments, coordinated necessary approvals, and executed precise fabrication and installation of new pipeline sections. Utilizing advanced welding techniques and corrosion protection systems, including a Corrocoat coating exceeding 3000 microns thickness, Qualships guaranteed enhanced durability against harsh marine environments. Following rigorous Magnetic Particle Testing (MPI), the installation was declared leak-free and compliant with all class standards. Qualships continues to set industry benchmarks in marine quality assurance, exemplifying dedication to safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.
