Press Release
We are very pleased that January has met us with a very high activity in our workshop. We hope you have the time to read about some of the recent exciting jobs carried out and ongoing.

M/V Hagland Boss
End of November we completed a huge repair of the rudder- and propeller equipment for the Norwegian cargo vessel M/V Hagland Boss – a job that included work both inside and outside our workshop in Hirtshals.

Propeller shaft, fixed propeller and rudder stock and rudder were shipped to our workshop. The propeller equipment was disassembled in our workshop and the repair included micro welding of scratches on the coupling end and manufacturing of a new chrome ring for the propeller. The fixed propeller was straightened, balanced and fitted with propeller shaft. The rudder stock was bend and also cold straightened. After welding of damages we carried out heat treatment for stress release. 2 new stainless sleeves were manufactured. DNV-GL was surveyor on this job. The rudder flap was straightened and we did various machining. New hinge liners were manufactured and machined as well as rudder cone. Final fitting and assembling of rudder.
On-site our service team carried out laser alignment of stern tube, rudder boss and steering gear.
M/V Emma Maersk – mobile machining
When Emma Maersk grounded in the Suez Canal a hole in the thruster tunnel caused floating of the engine room. The repair solution was a temporary repair with a steel plate. Late fall 2016 during docking in Shanghai our service team went on-site and carried out laser alignment, machining and fitting of a new foundation flange for thruster unit in tunnel pipe.
HG 62 Beinur – propeller damage
The recently new build HG 62 Beinur had an unfortunate damage to its main propeller equipment just before New Year. We received the propeller shaft and propeller blades in our workshop for urgent repair.
The job included straightening and repair of propeller shaft and propeller blades. We carried out alignment control of propeller hub and machining of new stern tube bearing. The job was class approved by DNV-GL.
M/V Irena Arctica – manufacturing of rudder stock
Due to our large stock of class approved material we were able to manufacture a new rudder stock Ø490 x 7655 mm with bronze and stainless steel liners for the vessel M/V Irena Arctica within 5 days.

VA 705 Brestir færøerske skib
In December the trawler from Faroe Islands came to Hirtshals for a big renovation and is soon ready to go back at sea. The trawler has been sand blasted and re-painted. We are the main contractor on the job. Onboard we carry out repair of various deck parts and complete overhaul of the propeller equipment.

For the repair on the propeller hub we have used our latest welding technique Laser Cladding. Read more about the laser cladding technique on our web site here.

MF Richard With
Chemical cleaning of vacuum sewage systems has been one of MarineShaft´s “niche fields” for many years. With our mobile equipment our service team went onboard the Norwegian ferry MF Richard With during docking in Landskrona and made sure the toilet system is ready for a new busy season with passengers staying happy with no blocked toilets.

USS Mount Whitney
This week our 1800 m2. work shop seems a bit crowded. We have just received 3 shafts from the US Navy vessel USS Mount Whitney for repair.

The rudderstock on the photo has the dimension of Ø/1012 x 6988 mm and a weight of 25.9 ton
