Challenge
MT High SD Yihe required a fast, effective solution to replace the VDR battery and complete the Annual Performance Test during a one-day port call at Pembroke. A full VDR Float Free Unit replacement was recommended, but this option was expensive and would cause significant delays.
Results
By coordinating with the VDR manufacturer and sourcing a battery replacement service kit from Jotron, Anglo-Eastern Tanker Management achieved significant cost savings of approximately 4,100 EUR, with an additional 350 EUR saved in delivery costs. This timely solution ensured that the vessel could depart as scheduled, meeting tight operational deadlines.
