Ship owners can now achieve fuel and emission savings after AkzoNobel’s International brand launched what the company calls the marine industry’s most environmentally sustainable hull management package. Intertrac HullCare offers operators control by combining remote inspection, advanced cleaning technologies and big data monitoring into a system that sets new standards for operational efficiencies.
By ensuring that smooth, clean hulls are maintained, customers who choose the option of a 10-year scheme can reportedly achieve step-change reductions in CO2 emissions of up to 34,000 tons and fuel savings of €4.6million.
