DNV GL has signed a new partnership agreement with M.A.C Solutions for its ECO Insight vessel efficiency tool, a partnership that will see information from M.A.C’s data collection system be incorporated into the ship performance software.
The data collection system from M.A.C, SDBnet, is a web-based soft and hardware platform that was designed to exchange data between non-stationary vessels and a centralised stationary data base at shore. Data points are manually reported by the vessel crew and optionally collected by on-board sensors. The information is then transmitted to shore where is can be processed by the office system and displayed for further analytics, such as fuel consumption.
ECO Insight is able to work with numerous data sources to give immediate performance insights. For instance, hull and engine degradation can be assessed as well as fuel quality. The tool provides benchmarks against in-fleet and market values to enable effective decision-making and can be scaled to any fleet or mixed fleets.
