Wecom’s solution to scrubber overboard pipe failure – a corrosion-reducing, cost-friendly solution.

Extensive research and development since 2020 has allowed us to review past works carried out for overboard renewals to determine the thickness of sleeves and quantity of adhesive required to supply, fabricate and install GRE overboard sleeves.

Over the course of year 2021, we have sent our prototypes for testing:

Structural Axial Tensile Strength Test
Loss of Ignition Test
Degree of Curing – Tg Value Test

Our sleeve fabrication has also undergone further testing conducted by NMD and ClassNK.

Since April 2022, we have successfully installed our GRE sleeves in 16 vessels thus far and we are projected to make a difference in many more vessels in the future.
