VOYAGE PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT WITH HIGH FREQUENCY DATA

 

 

 

Smart Ship©️ Hub (SSH) is leveraging high frequency data telemetry for multiple use cases. Traditional voyage planning, weather routing and ETA have been using vessel fed data only and other human fed updates to plan voyage in fixed intervals.

SSH’s digital platform for Voyage Performance Management enables ECDIS-ready voyage plan while making it on-demand during the entire voyage. “Voyage Simulation” allows the Master of vessel a complete estimate and help plan considering all possible weather situations before start of voyage. The simulation process also gives necessary certainty to the planning and a visual illustration to the entire process.

Voyage Performance Management Platform is based on an extensive database of route network, way points, port databases, weather forecasts, and the relevant ship model.

Chartworld recently joined SSH’s growing network of digitally managed vessels. Chartworld’s database of extensive routes, specific zones, safety contours together with accurate weather data on those planned waypoints help the master plan the voyage, deviate depending upon impending weather conditions and maintain ETA dynamically with help of continuous data streams from the vessel.

Live updates received from vessel machinery, fuel consumption, Navigation equipment together with specialized marine weather updates on select route provides for accurate estimates on the CII, energy efficiency, main engine performance, consumption vis -a-vis dynamic weather and sea state. Voyages are now managed with multiple KPI’s:

* Dollar per nautical mile

* Dollar per sailing day

* CII rating

* ETA dynamically managed

Custom algorithms for specific vessel type and trading route allows for Predictive CII Advisory basis which the crew and shore offices take informed decision on Speed – RPM – Consumption.

Spire, the leading weather forecast company joined our growing SSH ecosystem to extend its services through Smart Ship Hub digital platform. Weather feeds in the planned routes now allow for dynamically optimize the routes while ensuring vessel and voyage KPI.

SSH digital platform leverages the power of big data and ML algorithms to continuously work with the route network database, live weather lay to forecast and predict most optimum route of the leading weather forecast companies for live and accurate prediction along with ECDIS-ready voyage plan, Ship-specific safety contours, calculate safety corridors while dynamically advising on:

* Route safety check

* ENC data quality

* Minimum chartered depth

* ECA, MAROOL zones

* Possible risks in specific zones

SSH’s Voyage Performance Management platform works on High frequency data as well as Noon report-based analytics along with a “blended model where only Navigation data is taken up as High Frequency feed”. Clients using SSH Voyage Performance Management platform reap multiple benefits, some of them being:

  • Simulate the voyage and plan ahead of time, ensuring 100% compliant voyage.
  • Speed – RPM – Fuel vis-à-vis weather conditions is continuously mapped with “predictive alerts and alarms.”
  • On demand weather forecast ranging between next 6 to 10 days to as close as few minutes are visually available along with continuous data feed
  • Alternate Route & Speed Control – You can simulate and check the alternate route and monitor your vessel speed accordingly.
  • Deviation can be planned dynamically keeping in mind Charter Party terms as well as ETA.
  • Manage KPI’s with the key ones being $ per nautical mile, $ per sailing day, managing CII rating and CII advisory, ETA planning and estimation.
  • Hull and propeller performance tracked voyage to voyage with specific insights on additional consumption due to Hull, Propeller or Main Engine.
  • 24/7 access to Voyage Performance Center for Chartering and Commercial team as well as Ship Technical team for dedicated and on-demand update on fleet performance with dashboards.
  • Operator dashboard in sync with Voyage Performance Mgmt. platform allows multiple parties to work in connected environment, most importantly with “single source of truth” and high-quality data source.

The outcome being “End of Voyage Report” which is system driven but also goes through “Expert Screening” before it published the performance update of a vessel and the entire fleet. Algorithms used for actionable insights as well as the methodology used are kept in compliance with the maritime arbitration standards.
