OHC Shipmanagement implements competency and compliance platform

Singapore-based OHC Shipmanagment has completed a project to integrate the WiseStella platform into its operations to improve fleet management, regulatory compliance, and crew training, following the results of a gap analysis in December 2024 assessing alignment with SIRE 2.0, TMSA 3, SOLAS, MARPOL, and the ISM Code.

The review highlighted areas for improvement that included documentation, training, risk assessment, and technology integration.

OHC operates a fleet of 16 tankers, including three vessels serving major oil companies, and has focused on adapting its operations to the enhanced requirements within OCIMF SIRE 2.0. The updated framework introduces stricter inspection criteria, with a greater emphasis on risk assessment, crew competency, and documentation accuracy.

WiseStella’s AI-driven system provides real-time compliance tracking, automated risk assessment, and structured training programmes to improve operational readiness. It also offers a Behavioural Competency Assessment (BCA) tool to evaluate crew skills and track progress.

“It provides the structured approach we need to analyse procedures and make improvements. By integrating the WiseStella tools, we are taking decisive steps toward meeting and exceeding industry standards,” said Capt Roland Sinnadurai, General Manager of OHC.

“SIRE 2.0 is more detailed than its predecessor, and ensuring our fleet meets every criterion demands a more systematic approach. Maintaining accurate records is a challenge, but a necessary one. WiseStella’s system automates and standardises these procedures allowing us to pass vetting inspections and remain attractive to charterers.”

“The platform’s digital training modules ensure continuous development, equipping staff and crew with the expertise needed to maintain high standards. Maritime safety is not static – it requires ongoing improvement, and real-time insights help us maintain the highest operational standards.”
