Have You Navigated Your Ballast Water Testing Regulations?

In September 2017, the IMO Ballast Water Management Convention and the United States Coast Guard developed strict regulations governing ballast water management, stating that all ships must – within the next 5 years – meet certain standards when discharging ballast water.

Installing a Ballast Water Treatment System is a significant and costly undertaking for ships, not to mention learning a new testing protocol to self-monitor ballast water.

Ankron Water Services, a marine testing and consulting company, assessed the Luminultra BQUA PLUS Ballast Water Monitoring Kit to determine its suitability to perform rapid and accurate commissioning testing for ballast water management systems. Please contact us for more detail.
