NAPA and ChartWorld will join forces to deliver artificial intelligence- (AI-)driven voyage planning and optimisation, which is to make shipping more cost effective and time efficient.
The solution developed includes modules for evaluating the operational efficiency of past voyages, and then using this data to optimise the efficiency of future transits where there are similar variables and trends. Past voyages are automatically evaluated via datasets collected from ChartWorld’s route network to find improved routes the vessel could have taken.
These voyages are also automatically analysed by NAPA’s algorithms for operational efficiency, taking into account wave conditions, weather, and other factors that affect the voyage.
Making Cost Effective and Time Efficient Choices
'In today’s era of constant regulatory change and cost volatility, vessel efficiency and safety are more important than ever,' said Oliver Schwarz, ChartWorld’s Business Development Director. He stated the integration of ChartWorld’s voyage planning with NAPA Fleet Intelligence – software for optimised vessel operation – a solution has been created that reliably gives owners and operators the information they need to make the most cost effective and time efficient choices for their fleets.'
