Scot Tanker Selects MarineLine Coating System for Re-Coating Project
AVON, OH – Advanced Polymer Coatings (APC) has signed a contract with Scot Tanker, based in Istanbul, Turkey, for up to eight chemical tanker retrofits using the patented MarineLine® polymer cargo tank coating system.
These eight chemical ships became available on the market and were purchased by Scot Tanker to meet growing demand from its customers. The ships are each approximately 8,000dwt, with 14 cargo tanks and two slop tanks each. The tankers were previously coated with a leading phenolic epoxy cargo tank coating. However, Scot Tanker has decided to remove the existing phenolic epoxy coating and re-coat the cargo tanks with Advanced Polymer Coatings’ MarineLine cargo tank coating system.
