With a cascade of ever-tightening restrictions on emissions coming down from IMO, there has been an explosion of new solutions purporting to keep ship hulls clean. But all tech is not created equal, and Greensea IQ founder and CEO Ben Kinnaman – a pioneer in the sector – assesses that some are nothing more than ‘glorified pool cleaners.’ But in the end, Kinnaman and his Greensea IQ team realize, shipowners don’t care about clean hulls; shipowners don’t care about robots. But they do care about fuel efficiency, and Greensea IQ offers the robotic tools needed to help vessel owners save fuel while providing them with myriad data on hull condition that aids in effective lifecycle maintenance.

Autonomy in maritime operations is oft-discussed, but without the regulatory framework in place, the advent of fully autonomous ship will be the exception, not the norm. But pioneer technology developers like Norway’s Maritime Robotics are driving forward on automation technology today, aiming for fewer people onboard in the name of efficiency and safety. Sondre Sandvik, Sales Manager, Maritime Robotics spoke with Maritime Reporter TV at the SMM exhibition in Hamburg for a frank discussion of how savvy ship owners can leverage automation technology for return on investment today.
