Turkish shipping companies Arkas and Er Shipping have completed the implementation of new vessel performance optimisation systems on 48 vessels, incorporating technology from StormGeo and Danelec.
The system integrates Danelec’s onboard and cloud infrastructure with StormGeo’s Vessel Performance software, and will be used to manage commercial, technical and environmental performance.
The collaboration between Danelec and StormGeo began in 2023 as a way of fulfilling the needs of StormGeo’s earlier strategic partnership with the Turkish Shipowners’ Association (TSA).
“At Arkas, we take our environmental goals seriously. We are excited to deepen our partnership with StormGeo by equipping 44 vessels in our fleet with high-frequency data reporting through the StormGeo-Danelec solution,” said Emre Reha Güven, Environmental Management Superintendent at Arkas.
“We are confident that the high-quality data and environmental expertise this partnership provides will strengthen our efforts to decarbonise the shipping industry alongside other TSA members. It is incredibly gratifying for us to see the project come to life and witness the excellent cooperation between the teams.”
