Objectif Repair and upgrading of steel operating in contact with seawater, have saved our customers up to 70% of their investment in new equipment. The safe coat project should provide the research needed to prove and develop this challenge to improve the choice, application and corrosion protection of coatings for new building and maintenance of ships by:- test the strain capability of aged coating of ship structure;- investigate microbial corrosion of coated steel in contact with seawater;- investigate sulphate reducing bacteria in bio films;- describe the socio-economic impact of optimal choice and application of coatings.Independent tests of optional coatings and surface preparation should prove how our coating services could improve sustainability and life cycle cost of ships. To explore this potential we need to prepare a step 2 cooperative research (craft) project.
