July 2017 | Editor

GAC | The first hull cleaning of a cruise vessel using GAC EnvironHull’s diverless and brush-free HullWiper has been completed in Copenhagen. The removal of marine fouling from DFDS Group’s 2,800dwt Pearl Seaways marked the latest in more than 550 hull cleans carried out by the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) worldwide. It took 7.5 hours to complete the hull clean of the cruise ferry, which serves routes between Copenhagen and Oslo, while it was in dock at the Danish port.
