Digital Solutions for Vessel Performance Optimisation

Vessel Performance Management

Ascenz Marorka provides advanced Vessel Performance Management solutions that empower ship operators and fleet managers to monitor, analyze, and optimize the performance of individual vessels as well as entire fleets. By combining accurate data collection, real-time monitoring, and actionable insights, our platform helps reduce fuel consumption, improve energy efficiency, and enhance overall operational performance.

FLEET ANALYTICS

Understanding the operational performance of your fleet requires more than raw data. Our Fleet Analytics module provides comprehensive tools to guide decision-making. Through intuitive data filters and selection options, operators can instantly access historical records, compare performance across multiple vessels, and benchmark results against industry standards.

By visualizing trends over time, fleet managers gain a clearer picture of fuel consumption patterns, propeller efficiency, and vessel operational behavior. These insights enable targeted actions that will enhance fleet-wide efficiency and optimize energy usage.

Performance Evaluation

The Performance Evaluation module allows operators to visualize speed-power and speed-consumption relationships for each ship. Statistical baselines are generated for each vessel, enabling detailed comparisons over various time periods or between vessels of the same class.

This foundational analysis supports advanced applications such as fuel table generation, retrofit assessments, and predictive maintenance planning. Accurate baselines provide the crew and management teams with actionable insights, helping them make informed decisions that reduce operational costs while maintaining performance standards.

Hull and Propeller Monitoring

Maintaining optimal hull and propeller conditions is essential for minimizing drag and maximizing fuel efficiency. Our system tracks speed drop trends and compares automatically logged data against speed-power baselines, in full compliance with ISO 19030 standards.

Hull and propeller monitoring enables proactive planning for dry docking, propeller polishing, and hull cleaning. The system produces automated reports, allowing fleet operators to quickly identify performance degradation and implement corrective measures. By reducing unnecessary fuel consumption, operators not only save costs but also contribute to environmental sustainability.

Machinery Optimization

Efficient machinery operation is crucial for overall vessel performance. The Machinery Optimization module provides real-time dashboards that present data on engines, propulsion systems, and auxiliary equipment. Crew members receive actionable recommendations to enhance efficiency, reduce energy usage, and extend equipment life.

Through continuous monitoring, the system highlights areas for optimization, enabling predictive maintenance and timely interventions. This reduces unplanned downtime and ensures that vessels operate at peak performance levels consistently.

Charter Party and Voyage Overview

Ascenz Marorka’s platform enables operational performance monitoring in alignment with charter party agreements. Detailed voyage analyses are conducted either during the journey or immediately after completion, providing precise insights into compliance with contractual obligations.

By comparing actual performance with planned metrics, operators gain visibility into inefficiencies, deviations, and opportunities for improvement. This detailed reporting helps management teams take proactive actions, supporting transparent communication with stakeholders and facilitating decision-making.

Speed Optimization

Optimizing transit speeds directly impacts fuel consumption and overall efficiency. The Speed Optim module recommends optimal speeds for different voyage segments, factoring in operational constraints, weather conditions, and crew flexibility.

Advanced data analysis identifies thresholds where fuel savings are maximized without compromising operational schedules. Through the online portal, operators can track potential improvements, savings achieved, and missed opportunities. By providing actionable insights, this tool enhances crew awareness and promotes best practices across the fleet.

Real-Time Monitoring and Advanced Insights

Our real-time monitoring capabilities ensure that critical vessel parameters, including fuel flow, engine load, propeller performance, and environmental conditions, are continuously tracked. Collected data is processed using advanced analytics, providing management with actionable insights that can help reduce fuel consumption, optimize operations, and improve safety.

Historical data trends are also stored, enabling in-depth analysis of vessel performance over time. This long-term visibility is essential for predictive maintenance, energy management, and strategic decision-making across fleets.

Integrated Reports and Decision Support

The platform produces comprehensive reports that summarize performance metrics, fuel consumption patterns, and efficiency trends. These reports are essential for fleet managers, operators, and crew to make data-driven decisions. By integrating advanced analysis tools, the system will help identify inefficiencies, prioritize maintenance, and guide operational strategies to maximize fuel savings and vessel efficiency.
