Description

Ruzgar Refit

A Complete Alarm and Safety System Retrofit in Dubai.

Vessel information:Built: 1986Flag: Saudi ArabiaSegment: Ro-Ro/ Passenger

Høglund has successfully completed a comprehensive technical upgrade of Ruzgar, a vessel built in Rostock, Eastern Germany, in 1986. The existing alarm system from VEB Schiffselektronik has been replaced as part of a major refit, marking one of the most demanding projects handled by our refit department.

The scope of supply included:

  • Alarm Monitoring System
  • Main Engines/Propulsion Safety Systems
  • Diesel Generators Safety Systems
  • Remote Sounding System

The upgrade also integrated a new CPP system from Scana and Mar-El, and new engine governors from Woodward.

Rebuild projects often involve incomplete documentation and complex cable layouts, making signal tracing and verification challenging. To streamline commissioning onboard, Høglund pre-fabricated and tested all components in-house, with precut and numbered electrical cables ensuring fast and reliable reconnection.

Høglund appreciates the confidence shown by SAMC and thanks them for their collaboration throughout this successful refit.
