Overview
Background & policy context:
Italy is the European leader for shipping companies in construction and repair shipyards and the worldwide leader for shipyards. There is a strong need at international level for more stringent environmental and workplace-safety requirements.
Objectives:
The SIS-PRECODE project aimed to
- Reduce resistance (fuel consumption) 1% 2%
- Reduce pollution thanks to environmental friendly coatings
- Optimise and standardise coating application & maintenance
- Secure time efficient verification and control of coating process
- Increase of shipyard personnel safety in the work place
Methodology:
The project was divided into 5 work packages:
- WP1 Hull & Appendages
- WP2 Hull and Superstructures (mega yacht)
- WP3 Internal tanks intended for food products in bulk (liquid and/or dry)
- WP4 Internal tanks chemicals and ballast water
- WP5 Mechanical attack-resistant coatings
