Harbor & Ship Component Repairs
The Importance of Harbor-Based Ship Component Repairs
Harbors are the heart of maritime activities, where ships dock, load cargo, and undergo crucial maintenance. Whether it’s cargo ships, oil tankers, fishing vessels, or naval fleets, every vessel depends on high-performance components to ensure safe and efficient operation. Neglecting maintenance can lead to catastrophic failures, costly downtime, and operational hazards at sea.
Understanding Batu Hijau: Indonesia’s Massive Mining Site
Located on Sumbawa Island, West Nusa Tenggara, Batu Hijau is one of Indonesia’s largest copper and gold mines. Operating since 2000, the mine is managed by PT Amman Mineral Nusa Tenggara (PT AMNT) and is known for its advanced technology and exceptional productivity.
As an open-pit mining operation, Batu Hijau relies on massive heavy machinery such as excavators, giant dump trucks, and bulldozers to extract and transport materials. Given its 24/7 operations, regular maintenance and repair of heavy equipment are crucial to keep production running smoothly.
Key Ship Components That Require Regular Repair & Maintenance
1. Engine & Propulsion Systems
The ship’s engine is its power source. If not properly maintained, it can lead to:
✅ Fuel inefficiency, increasing operational costs.
✅ Overheating risks, potentially leading to complete engine failure.
✅ Reduced propulsion power, making navigation difficult in harsh conditions.
SSC Works provides complete engine overhaul and reconditioning services, ensuring optimal performance and durability.
2. Hull & Structural Repairs
Continuous exposure to saltwater, extreme weather, and heavy loads can cause:
✅ Corrosion and rust, weakening the ship’s structure.
✅ Hull cracks, leading to leaks and potential sinking risks.
✅ Deterioration of welding joints, affecting structural integrity.
Our welding and fabrication services restore hull strength, preventing long-term damage and enhancing vessel longevity.
3. Hydraulic & Steering Systems
A ship’s maneuverability depends on its hydraulic steering system. Issues such as:
✅ Leaks in hydraulic lines, reducing control over the vessel.
✅ Malfunctioning rudders, making docking and navigation unsafe.
✅ Contaminated hydraulic fluids, leading to system inefficiencies.
We specialize in hydraulic system restoration, ensuring smooth and precise vessel control.
4. Electrical & Control Systems
Modern ships rely heavily on electrical components for navigation and automation. Problems such as:
✅ Short circuits due to moisture exposure, leading to system failures.
✅ Faulty communication systems, increasing the risk of accidents.
✅ Malfunctioning generators, affecting power supply for critical operations.
SSC Works provides electrical system diagnostics and repairs, ensuring uninterrupted ship functions.
