OH Ship Cleaning used its Fleet Cleaner to clean the hull Wagenborg’s Vlieborg while at berth.
The vessel was heavily fouled with slime and algae, which was removed from the hull and captured by the installation. The collected wastewater was also carefully filtered in order to comply with environmental regulations.
Since Vlieborg had no cargo at the time of the cleaning, a large portion of the hull was cleaned above water.
For the underwater section, visibility was extremely poor during the cleaning operation. However, due to the unique positioning and imaging systems used by Fleet Cleaner, it was still possible to perform an accurate clean of the hull.
With the cleaning of Vlieborg and also previously the hull cleaning of the bulk vessel Marcor, both in Rotterdam, Fleet Cleaner has established itself as the new standard for in water cleaning in Dutch ports.
