Accurate zero installation methods for monitoring operational efficiency

Guarantee of ship speed at given consumption is essential for planning of the operations. NAPA Fleet Intelligence makes possible accurate ship performance assessment with zero onboard installations – revealing level of fouling and the effect of weather to the performance – with the help of a digital twin of the vessel. We have built hydrodynamics-based NAPA Performance Models of the entire global fleet, approximately 55 000 vessels according to their publicly available main characteristics and dimensions. Enabling improved estimates of required voyage time and sea margin, planning of hull maintenance. Providing up-to-date information on the ship performance for fuel efficient Voyage Optimization.

During the 2019 SAFETY4SEA London Forum, Dr. Teemu Manderbacka, Senior R&D Engineer, NAPA, talked about the various methods for improving operational efficiency.
