BioShell Units
BioShell Units are crawler-based robotic cleaning devices designed to remove biofouling on ship hulls and internal surfaces. Equipped with suction brushes and waste collectors, they improve fuel efficiency and reduce environmental damage from barnacle and algae buildup.
Explore Features
Crawler Mobility
Navigates vertical and curved hull surfaces reliably.
Suction Brushing
Removes barnacles, algae, and biofilm efficiently.
Waste Capture
Collects dislodged material to avoid marine pollution.
Why BioShell Units Is Unmatched
Eco-Friendly Cleaning
Minimizes water contamination and avoids abrasive chemicals.
Fuel Efficiency Boost
Reduces drag and increases vessel speed with less fuel.
Remote Monitoring
Live control and diagnostics via Munneer OS interface.
Adaptable Design
Modular chassis supports varying hull geometries.
Technical Specifications
Mechanical System
Autonomy
Proven Success in the Field
Fuel Efficiency Optimization
Proven 5–12% reduction in fuel consumption post-cleaning.
Routine Dry-Dock Reduction
Reduces frequency of dry-dock visits by 30%.
Green Port Compliance
Aligned with IMO and local port environmental standards.
Fleet Deployment
Used across multiple vessel classes in coastal regions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is BioShell compatible with all vessel types?
Yes, its modular chassis adapts to varied hull surfaces.
How is the waste handled?
Collected and disposed through onboard containment units.
Can it operate underwater autonomously?
Yes, with remote override and mission profiles via Munneer OS.
