Underwater Services in Malta
A ship owner is principally interested on the potential savings associated with a clean hull and smooth propeller. Anti-fouling paints offer protection against marine growth which lead to increased resistance requiring additional power (fuel) to maintain the same speed. The greater time spent at sea, the less anti-fouling effectiveness.
Ship owners should intervene to arrest this process which in turn will reduce their navigational costs.
