Certified Inspection Stations: Services are performed at flag-approved and Class-certified LSA service stations, ensuring all work is compliant with IMO/SOLAS regulations.
Full Component Certification: Inspection and overhaul of all LSA components, including hydrostatic release units (HRUs), davit systems, engines, and water-spray systems.
Global Manufacturer Approval: Our technicians hold certifications from multiple major LSA equipment manufacturers, allowing us to service a wide range of lifeboat and life raft brands.
Load Testing and Maintenance: Comprehensive annual and five-yearly load testing for davit and release gear, conducted to ensure reliable, safe deployment in an emergency.
Regulatory Compliance: Guarantees adherence to the mandatory SOLAS and IMO requirements, preventing costly detentions or fines during port state control inspections.
Maximized Safety: Ensures all crucial LSA equipment is fully functional and ready for immediate deployment in an emergency, protecting crew and assets.
Downtime Reduction: Our efficient, localized service prevents the need for lengthy service periods, allowing vessels to return to operation quickly.
Documentation Certainty: We provide full documentation and Class-approved certificates required for renewal and safety management systems.
Scope and Scheduling: Client requests annual or 5-yearly LSA inspection. BW TECH coordinates with the vessel/platform operator to schedule service dockside or at our certified station.
LSA Retrieval and Transport: Life rafts are retrieved and transported to the certified service station. Lifeboats are inspected, tested, and maintained in situ.
Inspection and Overhaul: Thorough inspection of all components, pressure testing of air bottles, and mandatory replacement of time-expired parts (e.g., flares, rations).
Load Testing (Lifeboats/Davits): Mandatory load testing of release mechanisms and davit systems according to IMO guidelines, witnessed by the client or Class Surveyor if required.
Re-certification: Issuance of new certificates and stickers, and prompt return of the equipment for re-installation on the vessel/platform.
