Objectives

• This course will develop the skills required to plan, implement and critically assess strategic maintenance plans through a unique blend of taught content and hands-on implementation exercises. The ability to drive cost-effect maintenance strategies across a range of industry sectors open careers opportunities for marine engineering.

Outcomes

1. Determine the best practice of ships maintenance types2. Evaluate the regular and sudden failures in machines and structures and determine their root cause3. Assess the suitability of inspection techniques in the context of real operation failures4. Elaborate on the potential risks in considered maintenance routines and recommend mitigation activities5. Assess the impact of technical and financial management on asset availability6. Solve the technical complexities in implementing new technologies to devise effective maintenance planning7. Evaluate the legal implications of a suggested maintenance routine and critically analyze its impact on health, safety and environment8. Build hand's on expertise to use the tools and the techniques in implementing asset inspection and planning9. Prove the confidence in proposing customized maintenance routines in comparison with the OEM's suggested routines10. Develop strategy based maintenance framework suitable to any given industrial
