This study uses a qualitative approach with primary data obtained through direct observation and interviews with the ship's crew. The results of the study show that effective maintenance methods include preventive, predictive, corrective, and breakdown maintenance. Errors in maintenance can lead to machine failure, increased operating costs, and significant safety risks.
