LONDON's Newport Shipping is looking for agreements encompassing scrubber and ballast water treatment, after signing package deals with other suppliers.
Newport chief operations officer Roy Yap said similar agreements are currently being negotiated with other suppliers, reports Colchester's Seatrade Maritime News.
'We will be shortly announcing several cooperation agreements with scrubber makers and 3D scanning and engineering companies towards providing a turnkey scrubber retrofit offering backed with financing,' he said.
'We are further exploring introducing riding squads to carry out afloat repair works and scrubber retrofits, which can shorten the duration for retrofit considerably or carry out the retrofits entirely or partially afloat; with or without drydocking. This is expected to reduce the off-hire times faced by shipowners for scrubber retrofits,' Mr Yap said.
Said ShipParts.com CEO David Luan.: 'We are delighted to have signed this cooperation agreement with Newport Shipping. The agreement allows its shipowner customers and partner shipyards to benefit from economies of scale, with access to more than 5,800 equipment suppliers..'
