One of Norway's best-known offshore vessel owners, Island Offshore, is testing Rolls-Royce's MarineCare concept, which forms part of a portfolio of services including equipment health management and energy optimisation services. The aim of MarineCare is to provide support and service solutions that optimise vessel performance through life. Individual solutions are matched to specific vessels and their operating profiles, with the first such contract being piloted by Island Offshore. Optimised manning, tighter budgets and more demanding operations are driving the need for fresh support concepts, Rolls-Royce suggests. Tailored to the operator, the focus of MarineCare is on strengthening availability, with fixed costs that offer an incentive for both parties (Rolls-Royce and the customer) to meet agreed service levels.
