Disclosed is an oil filtration and lubrication system (100, 200) for a sealing system of an azimuth thruster (400), oil filtration and lubrication system includes oil filter (102, 208, 300) comprising layers (104, 304) of filter material, layers being arranged within oil filtration chamber (106), have predefined distance (108) therebetween; and oil circulation arrangement (110, 204), when system is in use, oil circulation arrangement enables passage of unfiltered oil (112, 216) between layers, at flow rate which is less than predefined flow rate, oil filter removes impurities from unfiltered oil, and then filtered oil (114, 218) is passed from oil filter to sealing system of azimuth thruster, by oil circulation arrangement, filtered oil lubricates azimuthing seal (116, 210, 404), propeller shaft seal (118, 212, 406), of azimuth thruster, and wherein oil filter is configured to remove impurities from oil, which impurities have a size down to 0.1 micrometre.
