Trojan Technologies senior vice-president Christian Williamson said: “Being the first in the world to have submitted for United States Coast Guard type approval, we are committed to providing vessel owners the certifications they need to not interrupt their business of trade.
“Ulusoy required not only regulatory compliance confidence but also a solution that was both compact and seamless to operate, minimizing disruption to the vessel and crew. We are very pleased to be able to meet their needs.”
With the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Ballast Water Management Convention (BWM) moving towards ratification, and the approaching compliance timelines of the US Coast Guard (USCG), there has been an increased demand for BWT systems globally.
Ulusoy Denizyollari Isletmeciligi general manager Mesut Cesur said: “Trojan Marinex is able to offer a highly valued solution, compact, low-power draw systems, an integrated service network, and compliance confidence.
