Hyde Marine BWTS signs partnerships

The company selected US-based Choice Ballast Solutions, LLC (Choice) as an engineering partner – further enhancing Hyde Marine’s technical expertise for ship owners and operators, particularly in the US.

Separately, Hyde chose UK-based SeaKing Electrical Group, which will serve as an installation partner for European markets.

“Partnering with Choice helps Hyde Marine deploy a highly skilled engineering team dedicated to helping the maritime industry comply with ballast water treatment requirements, particularly for upcoming dry dockings and retrofit ballast water treatment systems,” said John Platz, president, Hyde Marine.

“Our goal is to ensure essential services are available for Hyde Marine as we work together to mitigate downtime for ship owners and operators as they seek to achieve ballast water treatment requirements,” added John P Dooley, president of Choice Ballast Solutions, LLC.

The Hyde Guardian Gold BWT process uses efficient filtration and ultraviolet disinfection to treat ships’ ballast water to prevent the spread of invasive species from port to port.
