Mission

Marine biofouling, the accumulation of marine organisms on a ship's hull, presents a significant operational challenge, leading to increased fuel consumption, higher maintenance expenses, and adverse environmental impacts. The proposed solution involves the adoption of an ultrasonic hull antifouling system, a technology that utilizes high- frequency sound waves to prevent the settlement and growth of these organisms.

Ultrasonic Antifouling Technology

Business Case

This business case presents the justification for procuring and installing an ultrasonic hull antifouling system for a vessel.

READ BUSINESS CASE

Ultimate buyer’s guide to ultrasonic antifouling systems

Vessel biofouling occurs when aquatic organisms attach and

accumulate on a ship’s underwater surface, such as the hull, sea

chest, propeller, thrusters, bilge keel, and keel coolers. When

biofouling occurs, it reduces a vessel’s fuel efficiency, accelerates

the spread of invasive species, increases CO2 emissions, and

jeopardizes overall operational efficiency due to increased

hydrodynamic drag. Fortunately, ultrasonic antifouling is a reliable

and eco-friendly method of preventing biofouling.
