Shanghai Gacy Marine Service (Qingdao) Co., Ltd. is the Qingdao branch of Gacy Marine, a Chinese ship-repair and marine technical services group founded in 2005 and headquartered in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, with additional offices in Tianjin, Shenzhen and a representative office in Singapore. The Qingdao operation handles vessels calling at Qingdao Port, the Dongjiakou terminal, Yantai, Weihai and Rizhao, and is configured around the SOLAS scope for life-saving and fire-safety equipment together with class-related hull and machinery work performed during port stays. Periodical servicing is provided for inflatable liferafts, lifeboats, rescue boats, davits and launching appliances, hydrostatic release units, immersion suits, lifejackets, lifebuoys, portable extinguishers, fixed CO2, foam and water-spray installations, fire hoses and hydrants, and breathing-apparatus EEBD and SCBA sets. Class-related capabilities include hull ultrasonic thickness gauging, ultrasonic hatch cover tightness testing, watertight integrity verification, lifting appliance and gear surveys, pressure vessel inspection, ro-ro door inspection, NDT covering ultrasonic, magnetic particle and dye-penetrant methods, GMDSS and AIS annual checks, and class-accepted underwater hull inspection through approved diving partners. Gacy Marine is listed by the Bahamas Maritime Authority and other flag registries as an authorised service provider and is recognised by Korean Register, ABS, Bureau Veritas, DNV, Indian Register of Shipping and Lloyd's Register for the relevant inspection categories, with operations available on a 24/7 response basis through the Qingdao office. Coordination between LSA, FFE and class-related work scopes is handled from one work order so multiple periodical items can be closed during a single port call, reducing off-hire time for owners and managers. Spare parts for liferaft canisters, lifeboat release-hooks, hydrostatic release units, extinguisher refills, EEBD and SCBA composite cylinders and CO2 control-station components are held in workshop stock, allowing immediate replacement of expired or non-compliant items at the time of inspection.
