Abstract

Machinery failures have negative impact on ship’s technical maintenance, which directly affects her operational availability. Science development allows use of innovative reconditioning technologies in order to increase the ship’s operational availability, and one of the most promising technologies is the Brush Plating. It allows shortening of the recondition time, while minimizing its effect on the base material structure. This technology allows repair using reconditioning with local treatment only in area where is necessary through compact and mobile equipment. Brush Plating technology implementation brings to higher operational availability, less expenditures, and higher profit. Methods used are System Approach, Data Analysis, and Comparative Analysis. In current paper a new method for estimation ship’s operational availability is proposed by the authors. This method in a combination with innovative reconditioning technologies will give an effect on the future ship maintenance program.
