Greensea IQ’s autonomous EverClean hull cleaning service is expanding to the Port of New York and New Jersey, the largest port on the U.S. East Coast and the second busiest container port in the nation.
This expansion enables EverClean to deliver essential proactive hull maintenance to the region’s vast container fleet.
EverClean’s robotic technology removes microfouling before it can cause significant issues, enhancing vessel performance, reducing fuel consumption, and lowering emissions. Unlike conventional in-water cleaning methods, EverClean offers a fully managed, proactive solution that ensures optimal hull performance throughout a vessel’s operational schedule.
Rob Howard, Chief Growth Officer at Greensea IQ, commented, “We’re proud to bring EverClean to one of the most important shipping gateways in North America. With thousands of vessels transiting the Port of New York and New Jersey each year, the opportunity to make a measurable impact on fleet efficiency and sustainability is enormous. Our expansion into this market reinforces our commitment to helping operators decarbonize through consistent, reliable hull performance.”
The Port of New York and New Jersey handled over 8 million TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) in 2023 and serves as a critical hub for transatlantic and global trade routes. As regulatory and commercial pressure grows to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions, proactive hull maintenance solutions like EverClean are becoming a vital part of shipping decarbonization strategies.
With its new location in Monroe Township, Greensea IQ can provide quick and consistent service to vessels calling at the port, including those operating tight turnaround schedules.
