Vroon Offshore Service B.V. is a diversified international shipping company and is primarily active in and around the North Sea, with a fleet of 90 offshore-vessels. 
 
After installing Pronomar - MERUS rings on Vroon sister vessels VOS Sympathy, VOS Sweet and VOS Shine, Pronomar has also equipped VOS Pace with its Pronomar – MERUS rings. The VOS Pace is the first of six PX121-type Platform Supply Vessels, designed by ULSTEIN. The vessel has been constructed at Cosco Guandong Shipyard (China) and is intended for operation in European waters.
 
On board the VOS Pace, the complete domestic water system was equipped with the MERUS technology.
 
According to the manufacturer, the MERUS technology helps to solve innumerable problems in water-bearing installations and systems. For example scaling, corrosion and biofouling. The MERUS ring not only increases the lifespan of the equipment and the machinery, but it also saves time and money by prolonging service intervals, Pronomar said.
