Hull Cleaning
Biofouling removal for energy efficiency and environmental compliance
About the Service
Our hull cleaning service removes biological fouling (biofouling) that accumulates on the underwater surface of vessels. The presence of marine organisms increases hydrodynamic drag, raising fuel consumption by up to 40%. We operate with a certified team and specialized equipment, including waste collection in compliance with NORMAM-401, ensuring energy efficiency, environmental compliance, and protection against invasive species transfer between marine ecosystems.
