Any generating set used for the primary power supply or emergency backup must have a scheduled service and maintenance performed on it. This will ensure its availability on when needed. The likelihood of generator failures escalates when service and maintenance checks are not done routinely.

Harbour Oil and Gas International Limited have a team of seasoned installation and service technicians with the ability to work on a wide range of makes and models of generators. We give outstanding after-sales and backup service to customers after installation whether they purchase from us or other vendors.

We also offer Preventative Maintenance Contracts covering checks and regular test, to ensure that our client’s generators are always available on demand. Below are some list of what is included in our standard generator inspection or service visit sometimes modified to suit specific customer’s requirements.
