India's ports offer world-class hull cleaning and ship maintenance at a fraction of European costs. Here's the full process.
Marine biofouling — barnacles, algae, and organisms — attach to ship hulls, increasing drag and fuel consumption by up to 40%.
Divers and surveyors assess the hull condition, identify fouling zones, and plan the cleaning scope before the vessel enters dry dock or anchorage.
High-pressure water jetting and abrasive blasting remove all marine growth, rust, and old paint from the hull surface — down to bare metal where required.
Specialist marine coatings are applied to protect the hull from future biofouling. Modern anti-fouling paints last 3–5 years in service.
