Anglo-Eastern to offer Orca AI navigation tech to 750 managed ships

Anglo-Eastern Ship Management has agreed a deal to offer AI-assisted navigation systems from Orca AI to the more than 750 vessels under its technical management.

The agreement will see Orca AI’s situational awareness and fleet-monitoring tools made available for integration into Anglo-Eastern’s operational platform, providing automated alerts and insights to support navigation in congested or low-visibility conditions while also improving shoreside visibility of vessel movements.

“Safety is paramount, and the Orca AI platform provides an extra layer of support when it matters most,” said Torbjorn Dimblad, CIO of Anglo-Eastern.

“By reducing workload and providing alerts and recommendations in critical navigation scenarios, we’re actively driving safety and operational efficiency, alongside key initiatives in upskilling our crews and fostering young talent. This partnership reflects our continued commitment to shaping the digital future of ship management.”

Orca AI says this is its first strategic partnership with a major ship management group, expanding its client base beyond shipowners and operators for the company’s SeaPod digital watchkeeper and FleetView monitoring system.
