CR Ocean Engineering

CR Ocean Engineering provides exhaust gas cleaning systems (SCRUBBERS) that help ship owners meet 2015 (0.1%S) and 2020 (0.5%S) sulfur emissions compliance, without the expense of low-sulphur fuel.

These regulations have gone into effect in two phases. First, on January 2015 emissions regulations were imposed in the European and North America Emission Control Areas (ECAs), limiting diesel emissions to 0.1% sulfur equivalency. Now, starting on January 1st, 2020 the Global 0.5% sulfur equivalency rules will be enforced. As with the 0.1% sulfur ECAs, the Global 0.5% requirement present shipping companies with the choice of using the more expensive, and less available, lower sulfur fuel or use alternate technologies such as Scrubbing Systems.

CROE leverages over 60 years of experience in air pollution controls to develop scrubbing system solutions for the maritime industry. These marine scrubbers are available in three basic configurations: Open-Loop (once through scrubber using seawater); Closed-Loop (a recirculating scrubber using freshwater or sweater with caustic or magnesium hydroxide); Hybrid (a combination of both designs) for maximum flexibility.

CROE Scrubbers are available for new builds and as retrofits to existing ships. CR OCEAN Engineering has sales, service and manufacturing strategically located around the globe. Nick Confuorto President and COO.
