The danger of sailing without a roof
over the head, out in the seas are greater than anyone could possibly
think of. The extremely humid air is enough to make your skin look like a
dried sponge and the sun’s rays can easily burn it like a toast
forgotten in the toaster. The huge damage is not only limited to the
human skin, but everything that can be harmed. Similarly the goods that
are being transported on the transport ships can be harmed beyond repair
if they are not properly protected. Today’s transport ships are
equipped with hatch covers to keep the goods protected against the harsh
climate of the oceans.
The hatch covers, although are made of a very thick sheet of steel, but over the time they become weak and need to be repaired often to keep them in the perfect order. The modern method, hatch cover ultrasonic tightness testing allows the crew to learn about the health of these covers and anything that is unwanted such as leaks and holes can be found out easily. The method to run this testing is very simple and very easy. It can save the crew from undergoing tedious and old ways to find the leaks and holes. The new method or the ultrasonic method saves not only time but many resources too. As the old methods required many different things to be applied such as chalk and a powerful jet of water which can be availed through powerful pumps, nothing of the sort is needed with the ultrasonic method.
Leaking hatch covers are as good as carrying the goods through the ocean without any covers. The transport ship often gets caught in a rain or a sea storm. Although the storm is not too devastating, but the high waves can be powerful enough to make their way into the ship’s uncovered parts. When the ocean’s salty water finds its way into the cargo holds, the damages are uncontrolled and the customer’s goods are destroyed beyond any repairs. The angry customers are sure to file a claim for the damages because their precious goods have been destroyed due to the leaks in the company’s ship. A good and profitable voyage turns into a horrible disaster all because of the negligence in the checking of tightness of hatch with ultrasound. If the tests are conducted in a routine, the hatch covers would never contain any holes and every voyage would be profitable.
