Recipes for success

Jotun has developed a revolutionary solution utilizing proactive cleaning to deliver an always clean hull in the most challenging operations.
 
The Jotun Hull Skating Solutions (HSS)  is made up of the following components:

• High-performance coatings: Building on Jotun’s proven SeaQuantum technology, SeaQuantum Skate antifouling is designed and thoroughly tested to work in perfect harmony with the HullSkater
• Proactive condition monitoring: HSS enables Jotun to monitor the performance of the vessel and predicts when an inspection or proactive cleaning is required
  
• Inspection and proactive cleaning: The Jotun HullSkater unit is installed on board during docking. The unit is operated remotely by a Jotun Skate Operator and supported by a designated onboard Skate Operator Assistant
• High-end technical service: HSS includes a dedicated on-site Project Manager during installation of the Jotun HullSkater and the application of SeaQuantum Skate antifouling. HSS also includes the operation of the HullSkater by a skate operator, service and support
• Performance and service level guarantees: HSS is delivered with extended performance and service level guarantees fitting the most challenging operations

HULL SKATING SOLUTIONS BENEFITS: 

• Full operational flexibility with unlimited idle days
• Reduced fuel costs through a consistently clean hull and market leading hull performance
• Reduced environmental footprint through improved fuel consumption giving fewer greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
• Reduced risk of spreading invasive species through early removal of hull-fouling at its geographical origin
• Hull state verification capabilities available 24/7

PARTNERS: 
  
KONGSBERG 
KONGSBERG have many roles in the development of the HullSkater; technology development, robotics industrialisation and manufacturing, in addition to service and support of the HullSkater in operation. The offering benefits strongly from Kongsberg’s 70 years of expertise in underwater technology and multiple autonomous underwater vehicles with advanced manoeuvring and navigation systems. 
  
Semcon 
Semcon shared its expertise in design, analysis, software and hardware development of HSS. With extensive experience in developing innovative solutions in partnership with customers, Semcom’s expertise in the development of both robotics and digital solutions were critical to the success of HSS. 
  
DNV GL 
DNV GL (Maritime Advisory) performed extensive risk management for the solution, covering equipment, installation and integration of Jotun HullSkater into the vessel and operational aspects related to safety, environment and security. 
  
Telenor 
Telenor, Norway’s largest telecommunications provider, has provided an “Internet of Things” (IoT) solution over its mobile network for vessels using Jotun HullSkater. Telenor’s global footprint enables solutions for protected and secure flow of data across borders. 
  
Shipping partners 
The shipping partners includes Wallenius Wilhelmsen, Berge Bulk and Maersk – strong, reputed companies with a high level of expertise within shipping. Their input to requirements and design as well as providing vessels for piloting, have been key in the development and testing of the solution. 

Jotun and its partner NKM from Japan were the first antifouling suppliers to recognise the full potential of the silyl antifouling technology. 

There is no substitution to experience and with more than 10,000 vessels applied, SeaQuantum is recognised as the benchmark in the market.

SeaQuantum is a market leading antifouling brand designed to optimize hull performance and vessel efficiency by minimizing frictional resistance during operation. 

Since introduced more than 15 years ago SeaQuantum has contributed to improving the environmental profile of the shipping industry by saving ship owners tonnes of fuel and thereby reducing CO2 emissions. 

A series of product within the SeaQuantum brand offers the customer tailor made solutions fit for specific needs stretching from coastal low activity trade to deep sea high speed operations. 

Jotun is having a pioneering and driving role in the process of international standardisation of hull performance measurements. Such initiatives of promoting transparency to enable further improvements of the environmental profile of the shipping industry, is a part of our strategy to strengthen our role as the global authority within the field of marine coatings.

Jotun Guard Miles+ is a powder coating brand developed for the appliances market. The brand was developed to cater for the increasingly stringent demands of the appliances industry with respect to production efficiency, colour retention, corrosion protection, and price competitiveness. Within the Guard Miles brand, there are features ensuring that the specific requirements for protection and durability for each customer can be met in the most efficient way. 

Jotun Guard Miles+ has also been fitted with a fast cure option, allowing the user to cure the coating at a lower temperature, thus saving energy, or at a higher speed at standard curing temperatures. This allows the user to increase the production capacity without needing to expand the line, in addition to lowering the coating cost. Furthermore, particle size management enable a much more even coating thickness on the object, reducing the material consumption as well as reducing waste powder from the line.

Since the launch of this innovative product, it has gained foothold in the market and is raising awareness on process optimising as well as reducing waste and energy consumption.

Jotashield Extreme was developed as the next generation of exterior paints using ground breaking technology that offers the ultimate in heat reflection, colour protection and durability.

The revolutionary technology, formulated by Jotun, combines heat reflective properties and UV protection technology to reduce the temperature inside homes in a region that suffers from extremely harsh weather. Buildings painted with Jotashield Extreme, reflect up to twice the amount of heat from walls compared to ordinary paints and maintain their colour for a longer period of time. 

Jotashield Extreme addresses environmental issues such as rising energy costs, global warming and heat management. By lowering the energy consumption used for cooling means less power usage. 

Since the launch, Jotashield Extreme has raised great awareness in the market when it comes to heat reflection, energy conservation and long lasting colours on exterior walls.
