We are always looking to get the best data for our internal and external customers.

While performing 3D laser scanning projects for BWTS and EGCS retrofits, we use few techniques to optimize and standarize our data delirevables.

Tip 01:
– We always orientate the scanner to the same relative direction inside the vessel

Tip 02:
– Whenever possible we progress in the area using clock wise orientation.

Tip 03:
– When scanning inside ballast tanks, we try to mark a reference in the area we are scanning.

We have been performing conditions surveys onboard vessels, for many years now.

One of our main objectives is not to affect vessels-cargo operations during inspections. For this reason is very important to plan, here few details to consider for a Successful condition survey while in port.

– Full contact with the superintendent at least a week before.
– Coordination with Master, (to prepare documents, spaces to inspect, etc) and post-survey comms.
– Early coordination with local Agent, to understand vessel plans (port call, anchorage time, others)
– Once onboard have a pre-meeting with chiefs from all departments and Master.
– Need to understand the vessel plans and priorities, adjust vessel inspection based on that.

CO2 Cylinder Valves

In many locations we have detected the misunderstanding on the usage or not of safety pins on CO2 Systems Cylinders Valves.

As per FSS Code Chapter 9. “2.1.1 Any required fixed fire detection and fire alarm system with manually operated call points shall be capable of immediate operation at all times”

There are two types of valves for automatic release CO2 Cylinders:

Type A Valves: For type A cylinder valve, the safety pin acts as a safety device during transportation, installation and testing phases. The pin must be removed to commission the system otherwise the CO2 system is inoperable.

Type B Valves: For type B cylinder valve, the safety pin is necessary to prevent the unintended discharge of CO2 due to vibration and the pin is required to remain in place until discharge of the CO2. Where the CO2 is discharged remotely from a fire station, the CO2 can be discharged without removal of the safety pin.

Today digitalization also applies to vessels, by performing a 3D laser scan of vessel compartments we can recreate a digital model of the engine room, the model is used for design and project planning, like BWTS retrofits, EGCS retrofits and drydocking upgrades.

Panama Canal transit time is normally between 10 to 12 hours, this time give Operators, Charters, and Owners the opportunity to perform surveys. Panama Canal Authority has limits on critical equipment tests, enclosed space entries, and any other activities that could affect the vessel operations while in transit.equipment test at the anchorages.

Here below factors we normally take into account before deciding if performing the survey while the vessel is transiting the canal:

• Panama Canal transit time is normally between 10 to 12 hours, this time give Operators, Charters, and Owners the opportunity to perform surveys. Panama Canal Authority has limits on critical equipment tests, enclosed space entries, and any other activities that could affect the vessel operations while in transit.equipment test at the anchorages.
• Here below factors we normally take into account before deciding if performing the survey while the vessel is transiting the canal:
• For surveys that need equipment test, we can use some anchorage time, before or after canal transit.
• If the vessel is planned to have a stop-over in the lake, it is a good opportunity to check the bridge and decks.
• Canal transit time is perfect to inspect Engine room areas and interview Engineers.
• Bunker time before or after Canal is a good time to interview Bridge Crew.
• Tanks inspections is possible at the anchorages.
• IHM Surveys is possible during Panama Canal Transit without the need for Anchorage time.
• 3D Scanning is only possible during Anchorage time and/or port call, as the vibration while the vessel is moving can affect the quality of the 3D Scans.
• ISM-MLC-ISPS Audits, possible during Canal, and timing the critical equipment test at the anchorages.

In 24marine.com we are looking all options and possibilities to perform surveys, taking advantages of any time available, while respecting regulations and operations limitations.

In Naval architecture and marine engineering, 3D documentation is used to support design, construction and new system installations on-board vessels. It provides designers and planners a helpful tool for collecting accurate documentation to create 3D models of the actual vessel configuration.

Laser scanning adds great and easy flexibility, with millimeter precision space and surface geometry, to prepare and plan designs in a digital twin.
