Marine biofouling — barnacles, slime, weed and hard growth — increases hull resistance dramatically. A fouled hull can increase fuel consumption by 10–40% and significantly raise your vessel's carbon footprint and EEXI score. OceanEdge deploys ROV-assisted systems and certified commercial divers to restore your hull to optimal hydrodynamic condition.
We operate soft-brush ROV systems that comply with biofouling regulations in sensitive port states, capturing removed growth without releasing it into the environment.
OceanEdge provides comprehensive cleaning of crude oil tanks, chemical product tanks, slop tanks, ballast tanks and cofferdam spaces. Our teams are equipped with automated rotary tank cleaning machines delivering high-impact cleaning in complex geometries — minimising confined-space entry.
All waste water, sludge and tank residue is collected, treated and disposed of in strict compliance with MARPOL Annex I & II, USCG regulations and port reception facility requirements.
Passing cargo hold inspections on first attempt is critical to avoiding costly delays and demurrage. OceanEdge's cargo hold cleaning teams are trained to work efficiently under tight port timelines, preparing holds from any previous cargo to the cleanliness grade required by charterers, cargo surveyors and classification bodies.
We service bulk carriers, general cargo vessels, OBO carriers and heavy-lift ships — covering grain, coal, ore, fertiliser, steel, timber and sensitive cargo grades.
Ultra-high pressure water jetting is the most effective and environmentally clean method for removing rust, old coatings, marine growth and industrial contamination from ship structures, decks, tanks and piping systems. OceanEdge operates equipment from 500 PSI to 40,000 PSI (UHPWJ).
As a paint-free surface preparation method, hydroblasting generates no dust, no toxic waste and leaves a surface profile ready for immediate coating application.
A clean engine room is a safe engine room. Accumulated oil, grease, bilge contamination and soot are primary fire hazards and major risk factors during port state control inspections. OceanEdge specialist teams carry out comprehensive engine room degreasing, bilge cleaning and machinery space sanitisation.
Our ROV-based and diver-assisted underwater inspection services allow full hull condition assessment without the time and cost of dry-docking. 4K video footage is captured of the full hull, propeller, rudder, sea chests, anodes, nozzle and stern tube — with our inspection reports accepted by all major classification societies.
Propeller roughness caused by corrosion, cavitation erosion and marine growth increases shaft power demand significantly. In-water propeller polishing by our qualified underwater technicians restores the blade surface to ISO 484 Class S finish — delivering immediate, measurable fuel efficiency improvements without any vessel downtime from dry-docking.
OceanEdge operates licensed port reception facilities and waste collection services across our global port network. We collect, transport and dispose of all categories of ship-generated waste in full compliance with MARPOL Annex I through VI — providing complete documentation for the ship's Oil Record Book and Garbage Record Book.
