Technical Management at Akkrum Ship Management

Ensuring Performance, Safety and Longevity at Sea

At Akkrum Ship Management, technical management is one of our core strengths. Our goal is to ensure that every vessel in our care operates with peak efficiency, optimal safety and full compliance with global maritime regulations.

We offer comprehensive technical services including maintenance planning, performance monitoring, budget control and procurement—delivered by a team of seasoned marine engineers and technical experts.

Every decision we make is guided by our commitment to operational excellence, cost efficiency and long-term asset value.

Planned Maintenance: Precision-Driven Reliability

A cornerstone of our technical management approach is our customized Planned Maintenance System (PMS). This system allows for proactive scheduling, tracking and execution of all maintenance activities—ensuring timely interventions, minimizing downtime, and extending vessel life.

Key benefits include:

  • Prevention of unexpected breakdowns and costly emergency repairs
  • Optimization of service schedules and spare parts inventory
  • Real-time tracking of equipment condition and service needs

Through our PMS, the technical team maintains full visibility into each vessel’s maintenance lifecycle, allowing for seamless coordination and uninterrupted operations.

Performance Monitoring & Energy Efficiency

In a volatile and cost-sensitive industry, energy efficiency is more than a goal—it’s a necessity. We closely monitor every vessel’s performance to reduce fuel consumption, improve stability and speed, and identify optimization opportunities.

Our advanced performance analytics provide insights into:

  • Fuel efficiency and emissions reduction
  • Speed, draft and hull condition assessments
  • Predictive maintenance and performance benchmarking

This data-driven approach not only cuts costs but also supports the industry’s transition toward sustainable, low-carbon shipping.

Cost management is critical in ship operations. Our centralized procurement system ensures cost-effective sourcing of spares, consumables and services without compromising on safety or quality.

Our procurement advantages:

  • Strong relationships with reliable global suppliers and shipyards

  • Transparent budgeting and cost allocation for shipowners

We maintain open communication with our clients, offering clear insights into procurement strategies and financial planning.
