The marine services sector in India is rapidly reforming, driven by the demand for advanced maintenance solutions and diagnostic capabilities. The intersection of digital advancement, tightening regulatory norms, and sophisticated maintenance techniques are shaping the marine services segment. Ongoing changes such as machinery breakdown because of a new type of 0.5 percent sulphur usage, and other changes in machinery are further boosting the demand for marine services experts for comprehensive consulting, repair, and maintenance solutions.
Within this niche segment, High Lander Marine, a specialty marine services startup is quickly rising to the top. Founded by Pankaj Tiwari, a technocrat, ex-chief engineer, ex shipbuilding manager, and ex-engine maker service engineer, the company offers robust solutions to a prestigious clientele. A savior for ships in times of distress, the company caters to varied repair and maintenance needs of the main and auxiliary engines.
Immediate Response & Beyond
Bringing decades of expertise and an agile approach to the table, High Lander Marine offers continued services to the clients, but most importantly, stands out for its effective immediate response. Whether a ship is struggling with the engine not firing, lack of speed, or requires maintenance with new regulations like evolving emission regulations, the company possesses the expertise to handle all this and more. Leveraging its application, the firm enables customers, service engineers, fitters, and others to register and provide necessary data, gaining insight into the clients’ requirements, and the availability of manpower to handle the varied needs.
By developing online tools, the company also possesses remote monitoring capabilities for the main engines of registered vessels. This enables it to provide actionable consultations immediately, facilitating real-time problem solving and troubleshooting.
“Since the start of the millennium, engine makers have introduced new technologies which are very cumbersome for customers to understand. We explain these technologies and enable them to implement plans accordingly”, shares Pankaj Tiwari, Founder, High Lander Marine.
Beyond maintenance and troubleshooting guidance, the company also offers consultations about the latest design upgrades and retrofits, a consistent query among shipowners. Guiding clients through detailed nitty gritty solutions, the firm helps clients transform their vessels in the most effective manner which helps enhance the ship’s efficiency.
Another element that requires expertise in ships are electronic engines that require specialized handling capabilities. High Lander Marine, other than Maker, is the first in the industry to offer training for handling these engines, through an online and offline medium, making it accessible to a wider audience base.
“Remote consultations have been very popular since the time of COVID-19, as ship crew struggled with the newly launched 0.5 percent Sulphur fuel that was heavily detrimental, causing the main engine liner teardown. Our online tool helped preserve liners by educating ship crew through training”, adds Pankaj.

In addition to online training, the company has also established a training branch and developed training modules which higher management and ship crew utilize to brainstorm past and future challenges. Through its YouTube channel ‘High Lander Marine’, the company imparts information about engines. It also hosts online teaching classes for the main engine and aux engine for ship crew.
Future Roadmap
With a stellar legacy at its credit, High Lander Marine is on the path to incrementally grow in the coming years. The company’s future aspirations focus on leveraging YouTube and other social media platforms more robustly, leveraging them to upload important overhauls and troubleshooting videos and lectures. It also aims to expand in specialized overhauls like electronic engine component overhauls and calibrations, becoming a holistic partner in the marine services sector.
