Main goals for OceanSaverMain goals for OceanSaver• Complete the development – 2006
C G8 t l d i• Commence G8 type approval procedure in January 2007 (land based) at NIVA
• Install prototype system on Höegh Trooper within February 2007 (depending on ship y ( p g pschedule)
• Type approval (G8) within August 2007 – firstType approval (G8) within August 2007 first system?
• Sale of commercial systems in 2007
Response from the marketResponse from the market
• Several inquiries• Mostly for newbuildings• Last one received recently LNG carriers to be• Last one received recently – LNG carriers to be
built at Samsung, Korea– delivery 2011!!!• Retrofit – owners will wait as long as
possible???possible???• National legislation will speed up the process...
Challenges for retrofitChallenges for retrofit
• Requirements for pre-engineering - time-consuming• Nobody knows where a ship will dry-dock until shortly
before • Difficult to involve installation company / yard?
– several months before dry-dockingy g• Installation in yards vs while ship is in operation• Many installations required within a short time• Many installations required within a short time…
BWT Retrofit marketBWT Retrofit market• Current merchant Fleet: 44 000 vessels• By 2016: 50% scrapped• Of remaining 50%: Half (~25%) too old for BWT• Remaining # vessels for BWT: 11 000• + new ships 2006 – 2016: 7-11 000• Total BWT retrofit market: 20 000 vessels• Conservative cut: 50%• Result, BWT retrofit market: Min. 10 000 vessels• Timeframe: 2006 – 2020: • Average: 650-700 vessels annually

Th illi $ tiThe million $ question(to shipowners):( p )
Do you want a BWT system with an active b t i ki b ll t t ksubstance – risking your ballast tank
coatings…?…or would you prefer OceanSaver® - the only non-active substance BWT system thatonly non active substance BWT system that actually protects your coatings…?
…because you need it – sooner rather than later!
