What a rich programme Theresa Thin and Anne Marie van Swinderen are still stunned by part I of PortXL 2026 programme. We did so many useful exercises and intensively engaged with mentors, co-startups and finally some 5 company matches, for potential partnerships.

To put this into perspective, looking at vessels of 300 GT and above, the figures from January 2022 show: India: 905 vessels China: 5,203 vessels Indonesia: 3,603 vessels That means China had almost 6 time

During PortXL's first three high-pressured, content-laden days Shipsonic has already gone to a next level. We developed our communications, we better grasped our markets, and worked on our team dynamics. But for Shipsonic the vital parts for which PortXL is so famous: 1. impressive pool of mentors coming straight out of a fairy tale 2. Introductions to some companies whose doors are not normally open to our humble selves. Probably PortXL is the best thing that happened to us

Yeah!!! Hartstikke leuk dat Maritime & Offshore de eerste waren die Anne Marie van Swinderen feliciteerden. Er waren รผberhaupt best veel maritieme mensen op dit export event. Wij willen hierbij alle MKB leden van Maritime & Offshore aanmoedigen om voor deze Oranje Handelsmissiefonds prijs zich op te geven. Op dit event waren veel deelnemers van vorige jaren die allemaal heel enthousiast waren over alle voordelen die ze hadden gekregen dankzij dit programma.

The Oranje Handelsmissiefonds selected yesterday the 10 winning companies to receive support with exporting. Shipsonic is pleased that it was one out of 10 companies (of 250 applicants) who will get the support from embassies, transport, financial strategy, investors, communications and many other companies to hugely grow its exporting abilities. You can see the 10 winners on the OHMF website https://lnkd.in/eWPMrct and also RVO (the Netherlands Enterprise Agency) made an off

Shipsonic's two person delegation to the PortPIC conference came back to work recharged. Anne Marie van Swinderen's top paper was by Pascal Guth of Danish Technology Institute. particularly his interesting findings around having to balance between soft and hard cleaning. Too soft cleaning risks not removing all the biofilm and the fouling regrowing fast. Too hard cleaning risks damaging the coating and also leads to regrowing fast. Altogether the biofouling reestablished much

PortPIC is an interesting institution. A conference where all participants attend all the sessions, with very active participation and good discussions.

1 out of 4 Indian-owned vessels in our analysis have a box-cooler cooling system. Surprises from India market research-1 As part of our market research on India, we have been analysing the cooling systems used across different types of vessels. One of the most interesting findings is the significant presence of box coolers. Our analysis shows roughly: โข 40% plate coolers โข 25% shell-and-tube coolers โข 25% box coolers โข 10% keel coolers We normally hear โno, there are hardly a

Carsten Rehder signed a Framework Agreement with Shipsonic. Shipsonic will provide the ultrasonic anti-fouling protection for the box-coolers on the twelve new-built CORAL 7500. Shipsonic feels the deal is extra special due to the name CORAL. With ultrasonic anti-fouling coral reefs will get a chance to recuperate, which alternative anti-fouling prevents. It was a great meeting at SMM where Fabian G., Commercial Director of Carsten Rehder met with Chiel de Wit, Director and

I don't normally share sunsets on a professional profile (or anywhere else really). But this one is different. The sun setting with the silhouettes of two vessels. The sky showing upheaval rather than the normal sunset calms and romantic stuff. It is quite an experience being here in Lithuania. We also travelled close to the Kaliningrad border, saw the border crossing at Panemune with only people walking across. ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐๐ก๐ฉ๐๐๐จ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐


We are looking back at an excellent SMM last week!
It was so busy, we realize now that we didn't take enough photos. At least this important photo with TX Marine Messsysteme GmbH's team, Nadine Paschen and Alexandra Leuschner shows you our energetic German agents. We will have some installations in German shipyards soon. If you want to have a presentation at your offices, October would be a good option. ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐ค๐ช๐๐! #ultrasonicantifouling #TXmarine #Shipsonic #USAF #Germany


Wishing all at SMM Hamburg a very fine second day.
It was great to see so many of the Shipsonic team: Hans Stolk at NRF Thermal Engineering Solutions A4-315 and the great NRF team was out in full force Always active Birgit Van de Wijgaart at GET STC LTD so welcoming at A4-346 Then Alexandra Leuschner of TX Marine Messsysteme GmbH with passion showing our radius transducer alongside their great Torx meter. It is definitely worth visiting the at B6-256.
