Drydock Management

We plan, procure, and supervise drydock projects end-to-end—protecting schedule, cost, and quality from pre-dock planning to redelivery. With disciplined controls and transparent reporting, Watersmet keeps your vessel compliant and back in service on time.
Our drydock methodology aligns class requirements with owner priorities, converting scope into a controlled work package with clear deliverables. We handle RFQs and yard/OEM selection, negotiate terms, establish HSE and QA/QC baselines, and manage critical path execution with daily progress control and cost tracking.

From steel renewals and coatings to machinery overhauls, regulatory upgrades, and sea trials, we coordinate all stakeholders—yards, makers, class, and crew—so redelivery is safe, documented, and ready for charter.
