Vibration sensors & Predictive maintenance
Value delivered: Breakdown averted
• Machine learning AI application was able to create thresholds by benchmarking all 4 AC units
• In a very short period angular alignment issue was identified with a potential for motor break down
in future
• Timely intervention and alignment check avoided a major breakdown
Value of monitoring by experts
Issues and Actions list by monitoring analysts (Example)
Ref Boiler Pump II: The Vessel Engineer should investigate the possiblestiffening of the mounting structure of boiler pump II in the horizontal direction to avoid fatigue and potential damage to the mounting structure.
AC Compressors Root Cause investigation: Stop and lock out the compressor after it finished its running cycle. While still at operating temperature,remove the coupling cover and carry out a laser alignment as per laser system instructions. Align motor and compressor. If the motor/compressormounting plate is bowed it will require shimming of both the motor and the compressor feet
Update turbocharger, engine and generator alarm limits based on latest measuring results: New frequency ranges have also been defined, and measurements taken in the background. The dashboards will be updatedwith the revised Alarm limits accordingly.

Smart MonitoringCapt. Simon Hodgkinson
History
• The first mention of Planned maintenance was in the Christensen whaling fleet in 1915
• In 1984 AMOS was first introduced
• PMS “forced” into use when the ISM Code becomes mandatory in 1998
• Requiring the carrying out of maintenance at regular intervals according to manufacturers and class requirements.
• Manufacturers will always be cautious on timings

Why is Insurance interested?
• Smart maintenance can add real value, especially from a loss prevention perspective.
• We obviously want our members vessels to be maintained in good condition
• This reduces the risk of an incident
• Great early warning system for potential issues
• Reduce costs for the member
3
Is it really practical?
• It must be used in conjunction with proper crew training and operational and maintenance checks in line with manufacturer advice and best practice.
• There is a high cost to install on board
• Cost to operate shore analysis
• One advantage of time based maintenance is the ability to time the maintenance with the docking schedule
• “Just in time” spares is challenging for trading vessels depending where they are in the world
• Vessels on charter finding suitable timings Fighting between the technical department and the chartering on timings
• Finding a gap in the schedule
