USA: Seanic Develops Unique Subsea Water Blasting System ECB for Use on Work Class ROV’s

 

Seanic Ocean Systems has developed a unique subsea water blasting system (ECB) that incorporates cavitation technology capable of being used with most work class ROV’s.

The ECB pump was built to solve an industry wide problem, where traditional 5K pressure washers are extremely inefficient for cleaning heavy marine growth and 10K pressure washers could potentially damage sensitive materials such as rubber, paint or anti-fouling coatings. The ECB pump is extremely efficient and powerful in the removal of marine growth from vessel hulls, strakes, risers, fairings and moorings, saving operators time and money.

Andy Guinn, VP of Operations said “We have been consistently satisfied with the performance of the pumps. To date, our fleet of models are being used on diverse cleaning campaigns throughout the GOM. I am also excited to report that our rental partner, Ashtead Technology, has several units working in SEA/Australia, as a result of the success in the GOM.”
