Underwater Hull Cleaning at the Port of Lomé

In-Water Hull Cleaning in Lomé

The Port of Lomé is West Africa's busiest deep-water transshipment hub. Every hour alongside is costly, so vessels need fast, reliable underwater hull cleaning without leaving the water. SIFM is based in Lomé, Togo, with certified marine divers on call 24/7 to clean your hull, propeller and sea chests while your ship stays afloat.

Marine growth, barnacles and algae increase hydrodynamic drag and fuel consumption. Our in-water hull cleaning at the Port of Lomé restores vessel performance, cuts fuel costs and avoids the expense and downtime of dry-docking. As a locally established company since 2010, we mobilise faster than mobilised-from-abroad operators.
