Verified Technical Case Study

Yokogawa CMZ-900 Gyrocompass Overhaul at Khor Fakkan Anchorage

Vessel: Aframax Crude Oil Tanker
Location: Khor Fakkan Offshore Anchorage, Sector B
Equipment: Yokogawa CMZ-900 Master Gyrocompass

Reported Fault: Master reported erratic heading drift (+/- 14 degrees) and high temperature alarm during anchorage stay.

Diagnosis: Engineer boarded via launch boat; diagnostic showed supporting fluid breakdown, rotor phase imbalance, and degraded gyrosphere bearing.

Work Performed: Installed reconditioned gyrosphere, renewed supporting liquid, replaced damping gaskets, balanced optical pickups, and synced bridge repeaters.

Testing & Verification: Static 6-hour settling test verified zero drift (<0.2 deg error); repeaters synchronized with ECDIS, radar, and autopilot.

Result: Vessel cleared for sea passage through Strait of Hormuz with full class-approved service certificate.
