Each owner or operator of offshore products uses a maintenance management system like CMMS(Computerized Maintenance Management System) in order to manage their assets effectively and efficiently for a long time. But most of maintenance management systems have been focused on machinery items, not on 'Hull' until now. On the other hand, classifications like ABS, DNV, GL are having a sale on hull inspection and maintenance system for ships and an interest in hull maintenance system is increasing because of the application of EDD(Extended Dry Docking). This paper discusses the concept, inspection process and the practical application of Hull maintenance for Semi-submersible drilling rig to extend the service life and run a stable operation.
