About MGR

Remove marine fouling from any structure, subsea and topside

We provide a range of marine growth removal (MGR) tools for cleaning marine fouling from a range of structures.

Our MGR systems can remove both hard and soft fouling, subsea and topside.

Our MGR systems use high-pressure (HP) water pumps to supply the manipulators with water to remove marine fouling, with average cleaning times over 20 times quicker than diver-operated HP lances.

Between 2024 and 2026, Claxton successfully delivered projects across the USA, UK, Poland, and Taiwan, working on both straight and tapered monopiles ranging from 6m to 8m in diameter.

  • Remove both hard and soft fouling
  • Can be used subsea and topside
  • Clean monopiles for offshore wind farms
  • Suitable for tapered piles, providing SA 2.0-standard cleaning
  • Bolt-ons can be included for marine growth capture and flange cleaning
  • Our latest MGR tool incorporates an integrated work access platform, providing safe and efficient access for technicians carrying out internal cleaning operations
