“In addition to this and in order to implement the idea of energy efficiency among the whole KOTC organisation, we implemented an Energy Efficiency Management System according to ISO 50001 which has been recently certified by DNV GL.”
ECO Insight is used to manage performance across various operational areas, including voyage planning, hull & propeller optimisation, and engine monitoring, combining users’ own fleet reports with industry data, such as Automatic Identification System (AIS), weather, or fuel.
Since its launch in early 2015 the software has been installed on more than 1,900 vessels.
“Improving fleet performance is on top of many quality shipping companies’ agenda today,” said Dr Torsten Büssow, DNV GL’s head of fleet performance management.
“KOTC is known in the market for their superior fleet operations and we are happy to support such an advanced company like KOTC to excel even further in achieving savings and operational improvements.”{/mprestriction}
