Chemical tanker giant Stolt is expanding its use of graphene-based coatings to reduce fuel consumption and reduce greenhouse emissions.
The Oslo-listed owner is to apply a hard foul release hull coating to its 30,345-dwt Stolt Lotus (built 2014) developed by Canadian start-up Graphite Innovation & Technologies (GIT).
In early November, the tanker was drydocked in China for five days to apply the hull coating.
