Record Keeping Maintaining our customer’s lifeboats maintenance
records. Beyond inspection and repair of lifeboats
SSI Service has maintained our customers’ lifeboat
maintenance records allowing SSI Service to become
an extension of our customers’ preventative
maintenance initiatives.
The
Specific Services we offer are:
Inspection and Survey
Regular inspection by a trained
technician represents a crucial step toward
keeping your equipment operational and up to
U.S. Coast Guard standards. We offer
monthly, quarterly, semiannual and annual
inspections by technicians trained to spot
problems before they affect the operational
capabilities of your lifeboat.
Repair and Refurbishment
SSI has fully equipped and staffed
lifeboat workshop facilities in New Orleans
(USA), Great Yarmouth (England), Kuantan
(Malaysia) and Dubai (UAE). These service
facilities are qualified to perform major
repairs and refurbishments for all lifeboats
and associated launch equipment.

Training
Confidence is a key factor in enhancing the
effectiveness of a survival system and
confidence is built through training. We
endorse onshore training programs. However,
we strongly recommend "hands on"
instruction, which takes place offshore
using the actual equipment assigned to each
man. We can offer instructors who work with
a survival system every day of their working
lives.
