Brubay Lay-Up Solutions for the Marine Industry
Brubay understands the challenges faced by the marine industry due to reduced transportation demand. Our expert services for the lay-up of ships are designed to safeguard your multi-million dollar assets, ensuring proper management of vessel machinery during deactivation and re-activation. With tailor-made lay-up agreements, we provide meticulous care and attention to detail, following OEM recommendations for both warm and cold lay-up conditions. Our periodic inspections and comprehensive reports guarantee that your vessel remains in peak condition throughout the lay-up period.
De-activation
This phase consists of the de-activation of selected machinery and its preparation for warm or cold lay-up conditions, as per OEM guidelines. A detailed report is issued with specific recommendations for managing the lay-up period.
Lay-up
Periodic inspections — daily, weekly, or monthly — are carried out on the laid-up vessel. These include visual inspections, testing, turning, and periodic operation. All actions are recorded in a monthly report, with recommended corrective actions highlighted for further decisions.
Re-activation
This phase involves the re-activation and commissioning of selected machinery. The lay-up logbook and equipment conditions are reviewed, with repairs carried out as necessary. The duration and extent of re-activation depend on the lay-up conditions and the quality of the initial de-activation. Class society involvement ensures compliance and readiness.

Centrally managed agreements are scalable to include de-activation, re-activation, inspections, and watch crew services. Expert crews are mobilized locally to ensure seamless execution.
