The result: improved ship performance management, lower energy losses, and transparent, traceable results that support both economic and environmental objectives.
The Importance of Accurate Measurement in Maritime Operations
Reliable measurement is not only about compliance — it is a key enabler of optimized vessel performance. Every tonne of fuel consumed, every kWh of energy produced, and every ton of CO₂ emissions released tells a story about the ship’s operational health. Without accurate monitoring, even the most sophisticated digital management tools cannot deliver optimal results.
Precision sensors and intelligent systems allow operators to:
- Monitor fuel consumption and identify hidden inefficiencies.
- Understand energy losses throughout propulsion and auxiliary systems.
- Optimize ship performance in real time to reduce costs.
- Ensure compliance with IMO regulations and emission standards.
- Support predictive maintenance and better logistics planning.
By integrating these measurement systems into daily operations, shipowners and operators gain a clear view of their vessels’ true condition — the cornerstone of reliable and sustainable fleet management.
Flowmet™ — High-Precision Fuel Flow Measurement
The Benchmark for Accuracy in Maritime Fuel Monitoring
Flowmet™, our Coriolis Mass Flow Meter, is designed to provide unmatched accuracy in fuel and fluid flow measurement. It measures the inertial force created by fluid moving through oscillating tubes, converting that motion into precise mass flow readings.
Unlike traditional flow meters, Flowmet™ is not affected by variations in temperature, viscosity, or pressure. This ensures consistent data quality even in demanding process and operational environments. By eliminating the need for frequent calibration and minimizing installation complexity, Flowmet™ significantly reduces lifecycle costs while increasing reliability.
Key Benefits of Flowmet™:
- Accurate and stable readings across a wide range of flow rates.
- Unaffected by flow profiles or pipe conditions, ensuring system integrity.
- Real-time feedback for fuel management and consumption tracking.
- Reduced installation and maintenance costs, thanks to robust design.
- Enhanced efficiency through integration with digital monitoring systems.
When combined with Ascenz Marorka’s Fuel Monitoring System, Flowmet™ becomes a vital part of comprehensive ship performance management. It empowers crews and operators with the insights they need to optimize energy usage and reduce unnecessary emissions.
In short, Flowmet™ is the foundation of accurate and reliable measurement, the first step toward smarter vessel operations and better decision-making.
Torquemet — Measuring Shaft Power and Propulsion Efficiency
Understanding Energy Transfer to Improve Vessel Performance
In maritime operations, high fuel consumption can result from multiple factors: mechanical wear, hull fouling, low-quality bunkers, or adverse weather conditions. Torquemet, our advanced torque measurement system, helps operators identify the root causes of inefficiency by measuring the power transmitted from the main engine to the propeller shaft.
By continuously monitoring torque, shaft speed, and derived power, Torquemet enables a deep understanding of energy transfer and propulsion performance. The data it generates is vital for improving efficiency and detecting mechanical issues before they lead to costly downtime.
Key Measured Parameters:
- Torque (Nm or kNm)
- Shaft speed (RPM)
- Power (kW)
- Energy (kWh or Joules)
- SFOC (g/kWh)
- kW per nautical mile
The data output from Torquemet is logged through the ship’s data acquisition system and integrated with other systems such as the fuel monitoring module. This integration provides a complete picture of ship performance, allowing the crew and management teams to assess true engine efficiency and identify opportunities for improvement.
With accurate torque and power measurement, operators can:
- Detect misalignment or overload in the propulsion line.
- Compare vessel performance under different operating conditions.
- Plan maintenance based on real operational data, not assumptions.
- Improve overall energy efficiency and extend equipment lifespan.
Torquemet is, therefore, a key enabler of sustainable fleet management, where data-driven insights translate directly into improved performance, lower fuel usage, and reduced emissions.
Emissions Measurement — Real-Time Environmental Monitoring
Precision Gas Analysis for Cleaner Shipping
Meeting IMO and regional emission standards demands precise, continuous monitoring of exhaust gases. Ascenz Marorka’s emissions measurement system provides an all-in-one analyser capable of identifying and quantifying CO, CO₂, SO₂, NO, NO₂, and CH₄ in real time.
By scanning the infrared spectrum up to 14 µm, the analyser detects the unique “fingerprint” of each gas, providing fast, accurate readings without requiring consumables such as carrier gases. This not only reduces logistics complexity and operating costs, but also eliminates calibration downtime.
Key Advantages of the Emissions Analyser:
- Real-time emissions data for IMO and EU MRV compliance.
- Robust design — unaffected by drift or environmental variations.
- Auto-calibration and maintenance-free operation.
- Compact footprint ideal for integration on newbuilds or retrofits.
- Reduced logistics and HSE risks, thanks to consumable-free operation.
Accurate emissions data are essential for both regulatory reporting and long-term energy management. By combining these readings with fuel and engine performance data, operators gain insight into the direct relationship between energy use and environmental impact.
This holistic view supports not only compliance but also continuous improvement — ensuring that every vessel operates as cleanly and efficiently as possible.
Gmet — Advanced Natural Gas Analysis
The Gmet gas analyser is engineered for vessels using LNG or dual-fuel propulsion systems. It provides a precise breakdown of gas composition — including methane, ethane, propane, iso-butane, n-butane, and heavier hydrocarbons — offering operators a detailed understanding of the fuel quality and combustion characteristics.
Benefits of Gmet for LNG and Dual-Fuel Vessels:
- Quick installation and easy integration into existing systems.
- Suitable for use in hazardous areas, ensuring safety at sea.
- No moving parts, resulting in minimal maintenance.
- Provides real-time composition data for performance optimisation.
With this data, operators can fine-tune combustion settings, improve fuel efficiency, and minimize emissions — crucial steps in achieving optimal vessel performance and long-term energy management.
Integrated Measurement Systems for Complete Fleet Visibility
Ascenz Marorka’s measurement solutions are designed to integrate into a unified digital system, enabling real-time monitoring, centralised reporting, and predictive analysis across your fleet. By merging fuel, torque, emissions, and gas data into a single platform, operators gain the complete visibility they need to manage every aspect of ship performance.
This integrated approach delivers several key benefits:
- End-to-end transparency for vessel operations.
- Unified data flows connecting bridge, engine room, and shore teams.
- Early detection of anomalies and deviations in performance.
- Automatic generation of accurate compliance reports.
- Improved decision-making for maintenance, routing, and energy efficiency.
Whether your vessels operate in short-sea logistics, offshore support, or global trade, the ability to access accurate data in real time enhances both operational and strategic management.
Driving the Future of Maritime Efficiency
Reliable measurement is not just a technical advantage — it is a strategic necessity.
The maritime sector is evolving toward greater efficiency, lower emissions, and smarter energy management. The ability to measure, monitor, and act on data will define the next generation of vessel operations.
