LomeShipServices.com provides riding squad services in Lome, Togo, for shipowners, managers and operators requiring specialist personnel to carry out maintenance, repair or technical work onboard their vessels.
A riding squad is a team of qualified technicians assigned to a vessel for a specific repair or maintenance scope. This can be particularly useful when several jobs need to be completed during a port call or when a vessel requires specialist manpower beyond its regular crew.
Our teams can be arranged for vessels at Lome Port and Lome Anchorage, subject to applicable access and operational requirements.
Riding squads can be assembled according to the vessel's equipment and planned work.
Depending on the requirement, the team may include:
The composition of the team depends on the vessel's work list, equipment condition and expected duration of the assignment.
Vessels calling at Lome Port may have a limited period available for maintenance before departure.
A riding squad can work onboard during the available port stay and address several maintenance tasks as part of one coordinated assignment.
Typical work may include machinery servicing, generator maintenance, electrical repairs, pipework, valve work, welding, steel repairs, hydraulic maintenance and deck equipment servicing.
The work plan can be prepared in advance using the vessel's maintenance list and technical instructions.
Riding squad attendance can also be arranged for vessels located at Lome Anchorage, depending on access arrangements and applicable local requirements.
Anchorage assignments may be suitable for vessels requiring extended technical work that does not need to be completed alongside.
Before personnel are arranged, we review the vessel's location, accommodation requirements, working conditions, tools and equipment required for the assignment.
Mechanical teams can be arranged for engine-room and machinery maintenance.
Their work may include main engine components, auxiliary engines, generators, pumps, compressors, purifiers, cooling systems, fuel equipment and other mechanical machinery.
The team can perform inspections, servicing, component replacement and corrective maintenance according to the vessel's requirements.
Electrical technicians can be assigned to vessels requiring extended electrical or automation work.
Services may cover generators, alternators, motors, switchboards, electrical panels, batteries, alarm systems, monitoring equipment and control systems.
Where several electrical jobs are listed, a dedicated team can work through the vessel's requirements systematically during the agreed attendance period.
For vessels requiring structural or fabrication work, specialist welders and pipe fitters can be included in the riding squad.
Services may include steel renewal, pipe replacement, valve work, flange repairs, structural welding, deck repairs and fabrication of replacement sections.
The required materials, dimensions and working conditions are reviewed before the team boards the vessel.
Riding squads can also be arranged for vessels requiring maintenance of deck machinery.
Technicians can work on winches, windlasses, mooring equipment, cranes, hatch covers and hydraulic systems.
Inspection, servicing, adjustment and replacement of defective components can be included in the planned work scope.
A riding squad is particularly useful when a vessel has a defined maintenance list containing several jobs that need to be completed within a specific period.
The work can be divided between the relevant specialists and coordinated onboard to make efficient use of the vessel's available time.
Before mobilization, the vessel can provide its work list, equipment details, technical drawings and any available photographs or reports.
