Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Services

Shell-and-tube exchangers on cooling, lubricating oil and other circuits foul, leak or suffer tube failure. Cleaning, plugging or retubing needs workshop capability timed to the vessel’s window.

Bodursan Marine Services coordinates shell and tube heat exchanger services in Türkiye. HVAC plant issues may also use ship HVAC service; urgent attendance can route via afloat repairs.

Typical scope

• Chemical/mechanical cleaning coordination
• Leak detection and tube plugging/retubing via providers
• Gasket and cover related work support
• Parts logistics and reinstallation attendance

Afloat vs yard

Cleaning and limited repairs often fit alongside. Major retubing may need workshop or dock time under dry docking services. Parts can move via ship spares delivery.

Can exchangers be cleaned afloat?

Often yes for cleaning and limited repairs if access allows. Major retubing may need workshop or dock time.
