Case Study: GulfMark achieves lower maintenance costs and 91% uptime with Ryder SelectCare Preventive

GulfMark - Customer Case Study

GulfMark Energy, a crude oil marketing and transportation company, faced significant challenges with high vehicle downtime and the complex, costly management of its maintenance program across multiple vendors. To address this, they partnered with vendor Ryder to implement their SelectCare Preventive maintenance service, seeking predictable costs and improved fleet reliability to support their critical, time-sensitive operations in the oil and gas industry.

The solution implemented by Ryder involved a comprehensive, outsourced maintenance program with scheduled service appointments, mobile maintenance support for remote locations, and complimentary vehicle inspections at Ryder fueling stations. This approach provided GulfMark with consistent, transparent pricing and robust performance tracking. The results were substantial: Ryder achieved a 91% vehicle uptime for the fleet and delivered a consistent decrease in GulfMark's overall maintenance costs, while also ensuring full compliance with all necessary DOT and FMCSA regulations.
