Partnership to deliver measurable hull coatings performance
BMT ARGOSS and International Paint to partner
By deploying International Paint’s fouling control coatings in conjunction with the BMT Smartservices system, ship owners and operators are said to be able to benefit from a measurable reduction in energy use and CO2 emissions. The system developed by BMT ARGOSS will independently monitor and report to stakeholders, the performance of their vessels.
BMT Smartservices builds on BMT Smartpower which is an advanced onboard, real-time performance monitoring and reporting system which acquires and records data automatically from ship sensors and provides valuable ship performance information to the crew and shore based management.
When employed as a package, the BMT system can be used with International Paint’s Intersmooth®SPC, the self-polishing copolymer biocidal antifouling as well as Intersleek®, the latest generation fluoropolymer foul release coating.
