Hull treatment is one of the most important aspects of dry-docking a vessel and a minimum hull average roughness (HAR) is very much needed to enhance the hydrodynamic properties of the hull. The coating superintendent's knowledge and supervision plays a great in ship's hull coating success. IMS coating team is very much familiar with processes / procedures / inspections / quality control of different antifouling systems like HEMPAGUARD X7/X8, Sea-Speed V 10, SEAQUANTUM X200, SEAFLO NEO and many other systems. During the dry-docking process, IMS Supervisor becomes an integral part of Owner's docking team to support and work for the owner's interests at all times.

To ensure optimum hull smoothness & efficacy of the hull coating, IMS dedicated Supervisors exhibit true professionalism from starting the Kick-off Meeting till completion of the project for a clear understanding of the standards of supervision, requirements of the work standards, procedural requirements in steps for execution of the work, any special techniques to follow for difficult areas etc. Strict supervision and quality control is maintained at all times of entire coating application to ensure all workers maintain correct spray angle, speed, distance, width of spray stokes and correct wrong operations if any. Our strict quality control ensures optimization of hull smoothness and uniform DFT on entire hull thereby assuring an even polishing of anti-fouling layer during its service period and minimizing fuel consumption.
