Underwater Ship Husbandry
We provide specialised underwater ship husbandry services to maintain vessel performance and efficiency without dry docking, with fast-response operations in port and at anchorage.
Service areas
Hull Cleaning
Removal of marine growth such as algae and barnacles using advanced brush systems that protect hull coatings while reducing drag, improving fuel efficiency, and restoring vessel performance.
Propeller Polishing
Precision polishing of propeller blades to achieve smooth surfaces, improving thrust, reducing fuel consumption, and enhancing overall propulsion efficiency.
Sea Chest Cleaning
Cleaning of sea chests and intake systems to remove fouling, debris, and blockages, ensuring proper flow to cooling, ballast, and firefighting systems.
Rudder Cleaning
Removal of marine growth from rudders and moving components to improve manoeuvrability, reduce resistance, and maintain steering efficiency.
Underwater Inspections
Real-time hull inspections using diver-operated CCTV systems, providing live video, condition assessment, and full documentation for operational decision-making.
Why It Matters
- Improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions
- Enhanced vessel performance and manoeuvrability
- Reduced downtime (no dry docking required)
- Early detection of damage and maintenance needs
