Frequently Asked Questions

How does an Air Lubrication System work?

An Air Lubrication System is a technology used to reduce the friction between the hull of the ship and the water to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The system injects a layer of air bubbles underneath the hull through a series of nozzles installed on the hull. The bubbles form a thin layer that acts as a lubricant and reduces the frictional resistance.

How does your collaboration on complete Air Lubrication Systems with Clean Marine work?

Clean Marine develops and delivers the hardware, and Pascal delivers the smart control system. As a customer, you only enter one contract and pay for the full system.

Is a dry dock required for installation?

For installation of a complete new air lubrication system, dry docking is necessary.

For installing Pascal's control system on an existing installation, we normally don't need access to a dry dock.
