Anti-Fouling

What type?

All Transocean Coatings anti-fouling products meet the requirements of being “tin-free” and “Cybutryne-free” contain no banned tributyl-tin (TBT) or Cybutryne (CAS No. 28159-98-0), meeting the latest IMO requirements.
However, this is not where the story about selecting a Transocean Coatings anti-fouling ends …

From traditional ablative anti-fouling to self polishing silyl-acrylate types in the Transocean Armada range to silicone based fouling release Transocean Ultima, the portfolio contains options to fine-tune a specification for each ship-owner, optimised for sailing pattern and vessels type.

Carbon Footprint

Whether speed and fuel efficiency are more on a shipowner’s mind has become less important as reduction in carbon footprint (Carbon Intensity Indicator, CII) is now the key driver for a coating specification. The IMO requirements around Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) is having decision makers in the maritime industry scratch their heads nowadays.

Transocean Coatings’ Aramada range offers self-polishing silyl-acrylate based anti-foulings that can be part of the solution. Our silicone based Ultima fouling relase products are a biocide free option.
