[Virtual Presenter] Good morning everyone. Today, we want to discuss the 38 Operational Deficiencies our company has found and rectified in the past year on capital ships, Fast Patrol Vessels, Interceptor Boats, and an Advanced Coastal Vessel. We will explain why these issues must be addressed and why they are important to all of us. Let's begin..
[Audio] We will start by examining Critical Defects and their relationship to Operational Deficiencies (OPDEFS), as well as how it is addressed through a Technical Management Philosophy. Subsequently, we will delve into Points Meriting Attention, Key Accomplishments, GDs and D-448 Liabilities and Technical Infrastructure. Lastly, we will emphasize the Focus Area..
[Audio] The number of Operational Deficiencies is concerning. Out of 38, only 7 remain unresolved after a month. This demonstrates our dedication to safety and quality assurance. We have a committed staff dedicated to guaranteeing that all our ships remain in optimal condition. We are ceaselessly enhancing our maintenance and responding promptly to any issues that may arise. In the end, our aim is to guarantee the security of our ships and the passengers on board..
[Audio] The slide before us introduces us to seven cases of operational deficiencies encountered by the author's company in the past year. This is a crucial part of the process of identifying and rectifying the operational deficiencies, which is essential to ensure the efficiency and safety of vessels and personnel. The first case is that of 'Sagar' - Rectification of PME A-2 Cylinder tappet roller, followed by 'Shaurya' - Refilling & servicing of FM-200 Major Fire Fighting system. We then look at 'Vajra', with Repairs on shaft seal for arrest of sea water leakage, 'Shaunak' with Repairs of sea water leakage from Stbd shaft seal and 'Sarang' with Major repairs on DA No. 2. 'Veera' has the task of repairing the B- 10 cylinder inlet valve rocker arm damaged on the PME, with 'Shaurya' dealing with Stbd CPP, indication on IMCS and LCP fluctuating, and finally, 'Rani Rashmoni' with the Gyro Compass showing erratic readings and inconsistent drift up to 750. Each of these tasks are of the utmost importance in the successful running of vessels and safety of personnel, and it is necessary to take immediate corrective actions to ensure that they are optimally functioning..
[Audio] Our team has devoted considerable efforts to address the OPDEFs in the past year. Out of 38 OPDEFs, 24 were resolved within a week and the other 12 within two weeks. Several of the OPDEFs were more complicated and required more time to rectify as the lead time for sourcing components was extended. At present, only 04 OPDEFs remain unresolved and are located across 04 different vessels, which accounts for 12% of the total OPDEFs. As of now, these pending defects are being handled with support from OEMs, approved repair yards, and approved refit guarantee from the contracting parties. With these ongoing repairs, a resolution of the left OPDEFs is expected soon..
[Audio] This slide shows the list of OPDEFs has occurred in the last one year, organized according to ships age and guarantee. As per ships age wise, there are 12 OPDEFs experienced on ships above 20 years old, 6 on ships between 10 and 20 years old, and 20 on ships below 10 years old. In addition, there was one OPDEF under guarantee, experienced on the Vaibhav AC system, where the forward AC compressor motor was jammed and drawing high current..
PHILOSOPHY - TECHNICAL MANAGEMENT. eil.
[Audio] We must ensure that our operations are conducted efficiently and that any OPDEFs (Operationally-Prevented Deficiencies) are quickly and effectively addressed. To do this, we must judiciously and staggeredly exploit major machineries, comply with single engine operations, conduct high speed trials and analyse fuel consumption, and adhere strictly to all relevant policies and advisories. This approach allows us to efficiently manage any OPDEFs that may arise as well as accurately measure fuel consumption. It also ensures that all operations are conducted safely in accordance with industry standards..
[Audio] To efficiently reduce the 38 OPDEFs and ensure they are solved in a timely manner, the author's company implemented several strategies such as early projection and positioning of major routine kits, regular training on operations and maintenance of equipment and systems, availability of key personnel during refit and major operations, optimum utilization of budget with VED analysis, and in-house expertise to enhance quality engineering practices..
[Audio] The slide addresses important points. In the past year, the company has identified 38 Operational Deficiencies across multiple naval assets. We managed to resolve approximately 76% of them in a month, but some of the deficiencies require further attention and should be prioritized. These points need to be addressed in order to guarantee the safety and operational capability of our naval fleet..
