Nikkiso signs aftermarket pump service agreement with Maran Tankers
Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group has signed a five-year service agreement with tanker operator Maran Tankers Management Inc to provide global aftermarket support for the company’s high-pressure pumps.
Under the agreement, Nikkiso CE&IG will carry out scheduled cold end valve repairs, maintain critical inventory across its five global Marine Hubs, and provide technical guidance and extended overhauls during planned dry-docking periods. The company said the arrangement is designed to reduce turnaround times from months to days by ensuring rapid delivery of cold ends to vessels worldwide.
Sean Fanniff, president of Nikkiso CE&IG’s Cryogenic Services Business Unit, said: “With Marine Hubs across Southeast Asia, Europe, the Middle East, the US, and China, we can provide our clients with a coordinated global approach and seamless port-to-port servicing.
“Maran Tankers is a leading operator in the tanker industry, and this agreement is another step in our growth in the marine market. We are looking forward to working together for years to come in support of Maran Tankers’ fleet.”
The agreement follows Nikkiso CE&IG’s recently announced strategic service partnership with Exion Asia Pte Ltd as the company continues to expand its presence in the marine sector.
