“A cruise ship never waits for anything or anyone”
Richard Betteridge, Key Account Manager Energyst
Always arriving and leaving on time is part of the positive passenger experience P&O aims for. So, when one of its power generators had to be replaced, but maintenance was not scheduled for another twelve months, a temporary solution had to be found. Fortunately, Energyst was nearby and delivered a custom solution.
The goal: during debarkation, installing a temporary power solution which had to replace the existing generator for a period of twelve months – until the ship was scheduled for dry dock.
A smooth transition took place. The loading of the tailored marine-specified 660-voltage generator commenced in these early hours just after the P&O cruise ship had docked. The generator was welded to deck 13. Two Energyst engineers sailed with the ship to complete the installation of the oil and gas generator Energyst’s rental solution was ideally suited to allow the ship to remain at sea with no downtime.
Which is ever so important for a cruise ship like the Oriana. The captain does not accept any delay or other adversity. “A cruise ship never waits for anything or anyone,” Richard Betteridge, Key Account Manager for this project comments. He continues: “Should a fault be detected, a safety suppresion is activated. And the custom generator and transformer package will immediately inform the bridge.”
