Underwater Painting is an advanced marine maintenance technique that allows coatings to be applied directly to submerged surfaces using specially formulated hydrophobic paints.

These coating systems are designed to repel water during application, enabling proper adhesion and curing even in fully submerged conditions. The technology allows protective coatings to be applied without removing the structure or vessel from service.

Benefits of Underwater Painting

• Eliminates the need for cofferdams or dewatering

• Reduces operational downtime

• Extends the service life of marine structures

• Prevents corrosion and steel deterioration

• Cost-effective compared to dry repairs

Common Structures Treated

• Offshore platforms

• Piles and jackets

• Seawater intake structures

• Desalination plants

• Marine pipelines

• Harbor and jetty structures

Performed by trained commercial divers using approved underwater painting technologies, this method provides effective corrosion protection, extends asset lifespan, and significantly reduces maintenance costs compared to conventional dry-dock solutions.
