An optically clear biofouling resistant coating compositions specially formulated for very high light transmission and more particularly coating compositions which can be applied to marine instruments and sensors. The compositions provide a biofouling resistant coating on the surface of the marine instruments and sensors which prevents underwater organisms from adhering and growing on the surfaces of the structures over a long period of time.

Optically clear biofouling resistant compositions and methods for marine instruments

An anti-biofouling seismic streamer casing (') is provided that is formed by a flexible tubing () coated with a layer of a two-part heat cured silicone elastomer (). The seismic streamer casing (&#x2032;) is formed by a method that includes steps of providing a flexible tubing () and pre-treating the outer surface of the tubing (). Two parts of a two-part silicone elastomer are then mixed together (). The method also includes coating the mixed two-part silicone elastomer on the flexible tubing (), and heating the flexible tubing to cure the coating ().
