Liferaft Exchange Service

CONVENIENCE, COMPLIANCE AND SAFETY
Mermaid is a VIKING Authorized Distributor for the territory of Vietnam.
We are part of the “Viking Life Raft Exchange Service”, the benefit of which is a time saving single operation, where we deliver similar rafts with new certificate and take back the expired rafts at the same time.

This is a fixed price per exchange concept and which levels out the costs over the contract period and seen as a very attractive concept by many shipowners having vessels with short port calls.

MANDATORY SERVICING HAS NEVER BEEN MORE CONVENIENT
Included in our Shipowner and Offshore Safety Agreements, this low-entry-barrier concept is available for life rafts and immersion suits, allowing owners to exchange equipment bound for periodical servicing with newly serviced and re-certified equipment, directly at pier or warehouse – for a fixed annual fee per item. With a standard turnaround time of 1‐2 hours, short port stays are not a problem.
With an Exchange Service, you are always sure to have safe and fully compliant equipment on-board.
