Ship Technical Management
Technical management in ship management focuses on the oversight and maintenance of a vessel’s technical operations, ensuring it remains safe, efficient, and compliant throughout its service life.
Technical managers plan and execute maintenance and repair activities for the ship’s machinery, equipment, and systems, conducting regular inspections to maintain optimal performance. They also coordinate dry-docking periods for thorough inspections, repairs, and regulatory compliance, ensuring the vessel meets classification society requirements and remains seaworthy.
This function is critical to a ship’s reliability, safety, and operational efficiency. Technical managers collaborate with the crew, suppliers, and stakeholders to guarantee seamless operation of all technical systems while adhering to international maritime standards.
