Yes. We source and install only genuine marine spares with the correct approvals and documentation. This protects your class status, avoids premature failures, and keeps safety systems trustworthy. If parts are obsolete, our workshop can refurbish or propose a certified equivalent.
Do you offer preventive maintenance plans?
We do. Planned preventive maintenance includes inspections, calibration checks, thermographic surveys, and functional testing of automation, E&I, and switchgear. You get a schedule tailored to voyage patterns, fewer surprise breakdowns, and clear reports to support audits and budgeting.
Piping & Steel Fabrication
We fabricate, renew, and modify marine piping systems—fuel, ballast, bilge, hydraulic, cooling, and cargo lines—using marine-grade materials and certified procedures. When renewal is required, we prefabricate spools to shorten onboard time.
Our structural steel works cover foundations, brackets, penetrations, and reinforcements for retrofits or damage repair. Every job is aligned with class requirements and onboard safety rules.
Deck Machinery & Hydraulics Repair
Deck cranes, winches, windlasses, mooring systems, and steering gear must operate flawlessly in harsh environments. We troubleshoot mechanical, hydraulic, and control issues, including leaks, pressure instability, and actuator failures.
We restore safe load handling and precise control, with functional testing that confirms readiness before you sail.
We had a power management alarm cascade during cargo ops off Singapore, and our chief engineer couldn’t isolate the fault. Deep Automation’s marine automation services team came onboard within hours, traced it to a failing load-sharing module and a loose feedback line, and stabilized the generators without shutting down cargo systems. They replaced the part with genuine spares, revalidated alarms, and handed over a clean report for class. The vessel sailed on schedule with zero repeat alarms.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Our tanker needed an automation retrofit for an aging engine control and tank gauging setup. Space was tight, and we were worried about long downtime. Deep Automation scanned the area, prefabricated panels and cabling in Singapore, then completed installation with a riding squad during our port stay. Their PLC/HMI upgrade improved response time and gave clearer alarms for the crew. Everything passed class inspection smoothly, and we’ve had far fewer nuisance trips since.
— Amelia Grant
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️A bow thruster motor kept overheating and tripping through the VFD, especially during maneuvering. Deep Automation’s engineers ran diagnostics, tuned the VFD commissioning parameters, and found insulation weakness in the motor windings. They arranged fast motor rewinding and reconditioning, then reinstalled and tested under load. The thruster now runs cooler and delivers steadier torque. Their clear explanations and after-service checks gave our team confidence for future operations.
— Jonathan Pierce
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️During a routine audit, we suspected hidden issues in our main switchboard after minor voltage dips. Deep Automation proposed a thermographic survey and discovered hot spots on breaker terminations and uneven busbar heating. They overhauled the ACBs, corrected torque settings, recalibrated protection relays, and rechecked the panel under load. The switchgear servicing report helped us close the audit findings and prevented potential blackout risk on voyage.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Emergency Riding Squads
Breakdowns don’t wait for port calls. Our emergency response teams mobilize rapidly in Singapore and internationally to bring systems back online with minimal disruption.
Riding squads can sail with your vessel to stabilize faults en route, perform in-transit repairs, and hand over a reliable system at the next port.
Boiler Service & Burner Controls
We service and overhaul main and auxiliary boilers, burners, and combustion controls. This includes tuning, safety interlock checks, flame monitoring verification, and control loop calibration.
Proper boiler performance prevents loss of steam, protects machinery, and supports safe hotel and cargo operations.
