It really feels good to be back writing articles on this blog again after about 5 months. It has been a busy period as I had to handle a site analysis and site set up job for reclamation work somewhere in the southern part of Nigeria. Also, a difficult decision making period too as I was also offered a job contract by a Qatari dredging firm based in Qatar, but due to some personal reasons, I was unable to honour that particular contract. I hope we can still work together sometime in the future.


With that out of the way, let's go to the business of the day.

Mechanical factors/causes
The human factors/causes.

The heart of man is so evil, but I do not subscribe to repaying evil with evil, no two individual is the same.
What I am about to discuss in this post might surprise most readers but it is the reality of this business.
So to continue from where I stopped in the previous post, I will unravel the mystery surrounding most diesel engine operations.

1) How important is the welfare of your staff especially the dredging crew?
