The Veritas Viking II is part of a fleet of seismic survey vessels operated by Veritas DGC Inc, of Houston, and two of the upper deck 45-tonne capacity winch brake drums had lost efficiency due to severe scoring. Rather than immediately opt for replacement, Veritas contacted the Metalock Engineering Group, a company it had used previously for line boring work in Aberdeen, to ascertain if the drums could be machined to restore winch braking efficiency and regain accurate control of the streamer cables and paravanes during towing operations.
Metalock Engineering is an established mechanical equipment repair company with proven expertise in quality repairs, maintenance, bespoke modifications and equipment upgrades around the world.
