Seaward Services, Inc. (SSI), a subsidiary of Hornblower Corporation, has recently partnered with maritime technology company Spinergie to deploy its comprehensive digital fleet management solution across its fleet of offshore vessels. This partnership aims to enhance SSI’s operational efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability through advanced data analysis and real-time vessel monitoring capabilities.
Spinergie’s solution seamlessly integrates various systems into a singular analytics platform, providing SSI’s shoreside operations personnel with a centralized hub to remotely manage their fleet. The platform’s high-precision vessel activity monitoring enables SSI to effectively coordinate shoreside activities and ensure adherence to safety protocols offshore.
Moreover, the solution leverages operational context gathered from crew logbooks, weather sources, and GIS algorithms to associate vessel tracks with offshore project areas and sensitive environmental regions. This data is processed through a tailored, interactive KPI dashboard that allows SSI to drill down into critical operational metrics and identify areas for performance improvement. For instance, the system provides deeper insights into fuel consumption patterns, enabling SSI to optimize fuel usage and reduce operating costs.
Ensuring safe operations is paramount for SSI. Spinergie’s solution evaluates sea states at the time of work activity offshore, verifying that operations are conducted within safe parameters. Additionally, the real-time information and alert system eliminate the reliance on daily position reports or VHF calls, ensuring that shoreside personnel are constantly aware of the status of vessels at sea.
The integration with logbook and engine room data sources further empowers SSI’s crew. Custom reports can be instantly generated, freeing up crew time for mission-critical tasks and reducing administrative burdens. By leveraging Spinergie’s solution, SSI gains a powerful tool to enhance fleet performance and support its growing operations.
‘Seaward Services, Inc.’s continued role as a leader in offshore vessel operations is built on our expert crew’s ability to leverage new technologies and data-driven insights to deliver more efficient and sustainable services across our global fleet of vessels. Integrating Spinergie’s solution will allow our team to pair its on-the-water operational expertise with real-time insights and detailed data analytics to increase fleet efficiency and safety, lessen environmental impact, and drive the future of offshore operations,’ said a representative from SSI.
‘We appreciate the opportunity to work with Seaward Services, Inc., providing critical solutions for their versatile fleet of offshore vessels. It’s an excellent case study on the benefits available to maritime companies willing to leverage the data generated by their daily operations,’ said Mr. [Contact Name], [Designation] at Spinergie.
