Eniram Limited, the fast-growing Finnish provider of energy management technology and data analytic services to the shipping industry, announced at Gastech 2014, the world’s largest LPG, LNG and natural gas event, another advanced fuel-saving product based on the established Eniram vessel platform.
Pyry Åvist, VP Marketing, Eniram , said: “Eniram Vessel Performance Manager (VPM) is a comprehensive energy management tool that will allow users on LNG carriers to analyze and track the total energy efficiency of their vessel in real time. In addition, the system is deeply integrated with other Eniram products to offer actionable guidance to vessel crew. In order for us to give optimization guidance, we had to develop a method to model the world’s most complex vessels, which now enables us to track & predict critical areas such as boil-off”.
“With VPM, a deep and complete understanding of a vessel’s energy management is now possible ,” adds Noël Jelsma, Eniram’s Regional Director Asia-Pacific. “This is a major shift in the industry, yet VPM for LNG is only a first step for Eniram: as today’s gas carriers, with countless complex systems, are among the most advanced pieces of floating engineering in the world. We believe that thanks to our unique data platform, Eniram is the only player right now in the industry who is truly able to make sense of all this.”
