Maritime

We have many years of experience in helping maritime actors with analyses that enable safer and more efficient operations at sea.

How Nolab works with the maritime sector

We work with shipowners, shipyards and service companies to ensure that engines, gears and auxiliary systems work optimally. Our analyses of lubricating oils, bunkers and cooling water reveal early signs of contamination, wear and failure. This helps prevent downtime and reduces maintenance costs.

We contribute:

  • Checking oil, fuel and cooling water to detect contamination (such as water or salt), metal particles and unwanted chemical changes
  • Early warning of technical challenges that may lead to engine shutdowns or reduced performance — statistics show that up to 70% of engine failures at sea are due to lubricant problems
  • Increased reliability in harsh conditions, including Arctic operations or high temperature areas
