ADNOC Logistics & Services, the maritime arm of ADNOC (Abu Dhabi National Oil Company), is to implement a new performance management system from French company Opsealog across the ADNOC Logistics & Services’ offshore fleet.
The deal was agreed following the conclusion of a proof-of-concept trial of the Marinsights application on 11 vessels, which will now be extended to the fleet of 70 offshore supply vessels in ADNOC’s Middle East operations, including PSVs (Platform Supply Vessel), AHTSs (Anchor Handling Tug Supply) and FSIVs (fast support intervention vessels).
Marinsights is a performance management tool used to monitor and optimise marine offshore operations, bringing together data integration and visualisation with Opsealog’s consultancy support, to improve fuel consumption and reduce emissions as well as supporting greater fleet utilisation.
During the five-month trial period starting in May 2020, ADNOC Logistics & Services achieved a 12% reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, the company said.
“Our proof-of-concept trial with ADNOC Logistics & Services confirmed the verifiable difference that good data management can achieve,” said Arnaud Dianoux, Managing Director of Opsealog.
“Our technology enables the offshore sector to leverage new efficiencies from digital solutions, including reduced fuel consumption and better control of other operational costs, all of which helps to protect their margins.”
“At a time when the defining challenge facing the energy and maritime sectors is decarbonisation, Opsealog’s data insights are also helping clients to improve their environmental performance and significantly reduce their carbon footprint. Our team’s extensive vessel design knowledge will enable us to benchmark operational behaviours, new technologies, and become the go-to contact for a range of critical issues, including propulsion transition, energy efficiency projects, and fleet utilisation, as well as supporting during the tender process.”
