Result
Each of the client’s vessels varied in the extent of work needed; however, CTS’s expert teams were able to react quickly while safely completing the scope of work on time and under budget. The HFO tank cleanings required extra care as the process involved reheating, which can produce hazardous gases within the tank. Although, CTS’s experience working with HFO ensured that the projects were carried out to meet safety standards. All works were thoroughly completed and confirmed by the Chief Engineer.
Client Feedback
“CTS has been consistent in providing us with excellent services over the years. Their experienced team knows exactly what needs to be done and always manage to complete even the most complex of projects on time. We look forward to working with them on future projects.”
