Different marine fenders hold distinctive maintenances. We upkeep the fenders in several big parts:
FENDERS INSPECTION
Inspection regimes vary from installation to installation depending upon the frequency of call of vessels and the exposure of the berths. It is suggested that for ports which are normally busy, inspection of the fender system should be organised into two sections; that provided by the operator’s mooring crew, and that provided by the maintaining organisation. Pre-berthing and post berthing visual inspections by the mooring crew provides some protection agained accumulative vessel impact damage. Such inspections must be recorded.
Visual inspection by the maintaining organisation is best done on a low tide cycle and inspection will be dependent upon occupancy of the berth, the aim should be for monthly inspection. If the tidal range is large and mobile suspended access is not available, boat access will be required.
