Overview

National Marine Facilities - Sea Systems (NMF-SS) operates two ocean-going Royal Research vessels on behalf of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), RRS Discovery and RRS James Cook. Both vessels undertake cruises to support interdisciplinary ocean research ranging from the tropics to the edge of the ice sheets and continental margins to deep ocean projects.

The RRS James Cook will be having an engine service and require labour to undertake the work and to ensure it is carried out to the OEM specification. Requirements: Only genuine OEM services & parts are recognised by the vessels classification society.

The OEM has a unique knowledge of its own product. Spares provided and subsequent work to assemble the unit will be carried out by the OEM, ensuring they will be covered by a full OEM warranty.

Additional details

The service will be acceptable to the vessel's classification society. Failure to engage the OEM in this process will void warranties, lead to possible costly repairs and significant vessel downtime.
