About Us

At Aroona Shipcare, we specialise in delivering end-to-end lay-up and vessel preservation solutions for the global marine and offshore industries. From oil rigs and offshore assets to commercial vessels of every type, we are trusted worldwide for our technical expertise, operational reliability, and commitment to asset integrity. As part of the wider Aroona Group, we provide owners with a seamless, integrated suite of services that support every stage of a vessel’s lifecycle—from idle periods and maintenance to reactivation and ongoing operations.

​

Our reputation as a global leader in oil rig and offshore lay-ups is matched by our capability to manage all vessel classes, including tankers, bulk carriers, container ships, OSVs, workboats, tugs, barges, and specialised marine units. We customise every lay-up strategy to suit the vessel’s condition, commercial outlook, and regulatory requirements, providing solutions that maximise preservation while minimising cost.

​

To complement our lay-up expertise, we offer a comprehensive range of shipcare and preservation services, ensuring that laid-up or idle assets remain safe, monitored, protected, and ready for rapid return to service. Our pioneering Hybrid Lay-Up Model—an Aroona innovation—bridges the gap between cold and hot/warm lay-up, delivering a unique balance of cost efficiency, reduced personnel, and fast reactivation capability.

​

We further support our clients with a broad suite of operational services, including:​

• Port & Ship Agency Services for seamless entry, lay-up coordination, compliance, and vessel movements

• Marine Services, including crew boats, handling tugs, logistics craft, and on-water operational support

• Underwater Support Services, such as UWILD, hull cleaning, underwater repairs, and ROV inspections

• Equipment Rental Services for preservation, safety, logistics, mechanical works, and technical operations

 

Through our group companies—Aroona Solutions and OGLTS—we also provide specialised Inspection, Repair & Maintenance (IRM) Services, including mechanical and electrical repairs, fabrication, surveys, lifting equipment testing, NDT, and full compliance support.

Across all services, our approach is built on safety, regulatory compliance, technical excellence, and transparent communication. We work closely with classification societies, port authorities, and regulatory bodies to ensure that every project meets industry standards and owner expectations.

Driven by expertise, reliability, and innovation, Aroona Shipcare is your complete partner for lay-up, preservation, and marine support—protecting your asset today and preparing it for tomorrow.
