Announces a series of updates to its Intertrac Vision digital forecasting tool.
November 4, 2025

International®, AkzoNobel’s marine coatings brand, has announced a series of new updates to its Intertrac® Vision digital forecasting tool.
Building upon its 10-year track record, the new features enhance user experience and deliver deeper insights to further support more informed decision-making in marine coatings selection.
Following the expansion of EU Emissions Trading Systems (EU ETS) in January 2024 and the implementation of FuelEU from January 2025, there is growing demand from shipowners and operators for more in-depth and accessible fouling control data to help them better understand the performance of fouling control technologies.
The latest updates include the ability for users to share forecasts directly with colleagues, along with improved visibility and accessibility for quick analysis of the commercial impact of coatings selection.
Additionally, total cost of ownership (TCO) and drydock costs are now aligned with the specific coating scheme and number of coats applied, resulting in more accurate and reliable insights.
International Marine Coatings has also made visual changes to the Performance and TCO Reports to improve the clarity, in addition to several functionality updates. These include making ROI and payback time visible in months and enabling users to input additional costs to cover high pressure fresh water washing and application. The updates allow users to align maintenance, drydock, or investment decisions with budget cycles and financial targets.
Launched in 2015, Intertrac Vision has helped shipowners and operators choose the right fouling control technology for their vessel, improving the vessel’s efficiency while reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
International has chosen to announce the updates to industry representatives attending the international maritime sector exhibition Europort, and to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of Intertrac Vision.
“Today we celebrate a decade-long track record of helping our customers make more informed, sustainable and data-driven decisions through Intertrac Vision,” says Dr. Barry Kidd, vessel performance manager at AkzoNobel. “These enhancements represent our commitment to helping shipowners make more accurate and reliable decisions on their fouling control needs.”
