Want to save 10% to 25% in fuel? Cetasol is launching Ferry Program, inviting ferry owners to use iHelm while providing feedback for development.
Cetasol develops intelligent solutions to support the maritime industry. Their flagship product – iHelm is a decision support solution based on AI. iHelm provides small to medium sized vessels support in fuel savings, performance insights, reporting and engine uptime.
Development is heavily influenced by data-science and AI, enabling features that can actually make a difference to the industry. By acting upon the recommendations provided by iHelm, vessels can save 10-25% in fuel.
Operators taking part in Ferry Program will install iHelm onboard their vessels. Cetasol will work on developing ferry specific features, inviting all the participants to come with insights and feedback. This will ensure the development of features that are actually useful.
The captain will receive recommendations in real-time on the captain display in the helm, for fuel savings and reduced emissions. All of the data is transmitted to the cloud dashboard for owners and land-based personnel for fleet overview and vessel performance.
At the end of the program the operators will be offered the system at a discounted price with no binding contracts or obligations.
The final system, with ferry specific features in iHelm will consist of a comprehensive operational optimisation tool. With iHelm installed onboard and the data gathered from the vessel, a digital twin model will be created and updated daily. Propulsion signals, trim, draft, passenger/vehicle load, weather, tides, current, wind and speed-through-water will be integrated.
