Hong Kong headquartered ship supervisor Anglo-Eastern has upgraded the Wärtsilä Fleet Optimization Solution (FOS) utilized by 530 of its managed ships by including the CII Dashboard device
Anglo-Eastern makes use of FOS to enhance the operational exercise, voyage effectivity, and total efficiency of the vessels beneath its administration. It is now using Wärtsilä’s CII providing to gather, report, and analyze the annual operational Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) of its managed fleet.
In anticipation of this 12 months’s entry into drive of IMO’s EEXI and CII laws, all 530 of Anglo-Eastern’s FOS-enabled vessels have been upgraded with the CII Dashboard in December 2022.
The CII Dashboard offers the ship supervisor full visibility of every vessel’s present efficiency. Early motion can thus be taken, enabling Anglo-Eastern to make higher knowledgeable choices a couple of vessel’s carbon depth, in order that it may well rapidly and cost-effectively enhance its CII ranking within the short-term and place its managed fleet forward of the IMO’s 2025 revisions.
“With decarbonization firmly at the top of Anglo-Eastern’s agenda, it becomes necessary to have a clear view of the carbon intensity of our managed vessels in order to better understand how our fleet is faring against our and the industry’s decarbonisation targets,” mentioned Anglo-Eastern CEO Bjorn Hojgaard.“Since implementing Wärtsilä’s Fleet Optimization Solution, we have been impressed with the insights the platform can provide. The CII Dashboard builds upon that, offering another level of meaningful insights that is both timely and highly relevant.”
Wärtsilä’s built-in dashboard not solely offers Anglo-Eastern higher visibility of how its fleet is acting on the carbon depth entrance, however analyzes all information from a vessel to determine the important thing elements affecting its ranking – equivalent to velocity, route, hull and propeller situation – and what focused, data-driven actions should be taken to optimise CII efficiency over a voyage or collection of voyages.
Vipin Achan, head of efficiency answerable for main the Anglo-Eastern Fleet Performance Center (AEFPC) in Mumbai mentioned: “Our fleet performance center is using the CII Dashboard to derive carbon intensity insights for better informed decision-making by all concerned stakeholders, as part of our commitment to continuous CII improvements across the fleet. Utilizing the CII Dashboard allows us to pinpoint underperforming vessels and address those at risk, as well as vessels on the cusp of an improved CII grade, whilst providing a timeline of the projected progression of our managed fleet.”
“With the maritime industry having a critical collective role to play in tackling climate change, CII provides the perfect catalyst to bring digitally enabled decision-making even closer to the heart of how the sector captures, processes, and reports emissions data,” mentioned Kay Dausendschoen, head of product, fleet operations & optimization at Wärtsilä. “Anglo-Eastern is ahead of the curve here.”
