For a decade, MJR Power & Automation has actively constructed, tested, and mobilised offshore equipment. Notably, we completed a full electrical installation for Amclyde Norson, offering comprehensive services in marine, industrial, and offshore engineering.
In 1995, NYK Vega (MSC Messina) had an advanced power generation system. Despite multiple failures, we replaced and re-commissioned the entire system, covering electrical control, power, instrumentation, switchboard modifications, and testing.
MJR Power & Automation provides a DNV-GL2.7-1 Containerised Power & Control System for a 4000Te Carousel and Tensioner System, in collaboration with a valued client. The project includes modular offshore drive containers, switchboards, MCCs, and other essential components.
MJR Power & Automation installed a bespoke 500kW Floating Offshore Power Conversion System using ABB's ACS880 drive. The system supports bi-directional low harmonic energy transfer, featuring energy storage for non-generating periods.
MJR Power & Automation upgraded JDR's production lines at Hartlepool, replacing obsolete drive systems and installing a new PLC control system. The technically challenging projects showcased expertise, enhancing productivity and reliability.
MJR Power & Automation replaced outdated Terasaki MCCBs and ACBs with ABB marine-certified EMAX2 and XT range on twelve CalMac ferries. The retrofit, part of a resilience program, was completed during scheduled dockings.
