What this service covers

Ballast and compartment tank cleaning

We specialize in cleaning double bottom ballast tanks and ballast compartments through controlled pumping, residue removal, closed-circuit washing, degassing, and manual finishing where required. These operations ensure safe removal of petroleum residues, sludge, and contaminated water from confined marine spaces.

Cargo and fuel tank cleaning to hot work standards

Fairtex provides cargo oil tank cleaning, fuel tank cleaning, and product changeover cleaning using chemical washing, high-pressure jetting, and steam cleaning systems. Our processes ensure tanks are cleaned to hot work standards, enabling inspection, repair, or coating activities without operational risk.

Marine vessel maintenance and refurbishment support

We support broader vessel maintenance activities including ballast water treatment, cargo hatch cover cleaning, cargo hold washing, painting preparation, engine room cleaning, pump room cleaning, and structural refurbishment. Services are supported by scaffolding systems, man lifts, and industrial access equipment to ensure safe execution.
