ABB has signed an exclusive three-year international maintenance contract with Van Oord.
ABB will service 140 turbochargers during a three-year period. The main focus of the agreement is to ensure Van Oord’s fleet is available to the highest possible degree, with minimal downtime and low CO2 emissions. This is achieved by efficient maintenance and, wherever possible, continuous improvement in the technical performance of turbochargers.
Within the dredging industry, hardware is generally under considerable strain and downtime is very costly. As a "turbo" is responsible for some seventy per cent of an engine’s total power, optimal and enduring performance is vital.
