Winterthur Gas & Diesel (WinGD) and Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) Group recently signed, the first agreement of its kind to integrate their advanced digital technologies in light of a perceiving a greater insight from their engine and ship data which benefits ship owners, reports WinGD in a recent press release.
Customer support
This collaboration will provide shipping companies with extensive digital knowledge allowing them to reduce the ship’s operational cost while providing insight on how to operate the ship and its engine more efficiently. Through their combined expertise HHI and WinGD will be able to enhance customer understanding and support which will ensure quick and accurate responses to challenges related to engine and ship operations.
Smart ship solutions
WinGD developed the Engine Diagnostic System (EDS) for creating valuable insight from engine and ship data. The EDS provides continuous, intelligent-diagnostics of the engine and component performance. This allows a ship’s operator to be alerted prior to an alarm signal with the goal of scheduling necessary maintenance to improve safety and to avoid unscheduled engine interruptions.
In 2017, Hyundai Heavy Industries Group presented INTEGRICT-Smart Ship Solution, its proprietary technology capable of realising economical and reliable navigation and management of ships. The solution standardises ways of navigation varying depending on levels of skills and experiences of navigators, collects and analyses real-time information on navigations, and thus will play a role in enhancing efficiency and safety of ships.
Smart operations
The collaboration between HHI Group and WinGD is expected to maximize the benefits of the HHI INTEGRICT Smart ship Solution by integrating the deep analysis of the smart engine diagnostics from the WinGD EDS.
HHI and WinGD will continue to collaborate to develop more tailor-made technologies to support ship owners throughout the lifetime of their fleet operations.
