5 Oceans diving invested significantly to develop a niche area hull cleaning service that offer an innovative, efficient, and environmentally friendly solution for maintaining ship hulls and niche areas. This technology uses advanced water jets that clean the hull of a ship without the need for brushes. The authority approved reclaim system and multi-step filtration method prevents the global spread of invasive species and polluting the aquatic environment. We can provide following niche area cleaning services:

How it works?
The diver first performs an extensive inspection to determine the extend of present fouling and coating condition. Our niche area cleaner is then adjusted and set up using the “soft” water jets to a calculated pressure depending on the extend of marine growth. The cleaning unit is now removing algae, barnacles, and other biofouling. This process is gentle on the hull’s protective coating and prevents the spread of invasive species by its extensive reclaim and filtration process.
What are the benefits to niche area cleaning services with environmental reclaim?
Robotic hull cleaning systems are able to clean large areas such as vertical sides and flat of bottom of vessel structures. However, the robot has limitations when it comes to “niche” hard to reach areas. These areas represent a large surface of the vessel which are increasing vessels fuel consumption and decrease vessels operational efficiency.
To be New Zealand or Australia compliant, also the niche areas must be cleaned thoroughly.

Our niche area cleaner can cover every inch of the hull with precision, ensuring no area is missed. By avoiding brushes, the risk of releasing toxic antifouling paint particles into the marine environment is significantly reduced. This method supports marine biodiversity and complies with environmental regulations.
Maintaining a clean hull reduces fuel consumption by minimizing drag, leading to substantial savings in fuel costs.
