As part of the process, the ship’s underwater hull was shot blasted and repainted. Her main dark grey hull, white sides, and iconic red and black funnel also received a fresh coat of paint and her propellers were polished.

Internal works included an overhaul of her air conditioning and plumbing systems.

QE2 is still at Drydocks World-Dubai to allow the remainder of her survey work to be completed
