The ropax FORZA, controlled by Grimaldi Holding, is being retrofitted by San Giorgio del Porto shipyard in the port of Genoa for the installation of scrubbers ahead of the January, 1st deadline when the new IMO rules come into force. Next January, TENACIA will be undergoing the same retrofit.
On both vessels, open-loop and hybrid-ready scrubbers will be installed with the potential to shift those technologies to closed-loop scrubbers.
