JOVO Group is a large-scale integrated service provider focused on the gas industry in China. The company’s operations encompass the full industry chain including procurement, transportation, storage, logistics and distribution, and terminal services. To improve operational cost efficiency and maintenance scheduling flexibility, the company signed a five-year Lifecycle Agreement with Wärtsilä for its 74,130 cbm Energy Spirit LNG carrier. The agreement is the first of its kind between the two companies.
About the agreement
The agreement includes Wärtsilä Expert Insight, a predictive maintenance service that combines artificial intelligence (AI) techniques and advanced diagnostics with Wärtsilä’s OEM expertise. The service proactively identifies and highlights potential failures and early indications of equipment deterioration and conditions that cause equipment to run less efficiently.

The Data-driven Dynamic Maintenance Planning service will help JOVO Group reduce the risk of unexpected downtime and optimise the vessel’s maintenance intervals based on actual need and condition, enabling the time between overhauls (TBO) to be safely extended.
The five-year Lifecycle Agreement will:
- Provide JOVO Group with exceptional maintenance flexibility
- Enable the time between overhauls (TBO) to be safely optimised
- Improve engine reliability and reduce the risk of unplanned downtime
