BMT SMART (BMT), the specialist fleet and vessel performance management company of BMT Group, has announced new contracts with Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI). BMT will supply vessel performance monitoring systems for four VLCC’s for a Greek owner which comes on the back of current orders already received from SHI for seven vessels (Suezmax and Aframax tankers) for Norwegian and Singapore owners, the company said in its press release.
BMT will provide SHI with its modular vessel performance monitoring solution, SMART VESSEL. SMART VESSEL has been designed to be flexible to user’s requirements, with each individual component marine approved, future proofing the system. SMART VESSEL collects analogue and serial feeds before transferring the data to BMT’s cloud based performance monitoring solution, SMARTFLEET. BMT’s data experts will then interpret the data to determine true underlying performance of the vessels. This contract will also see BMT providing the Shaft Power Torque Meter (SPTM) to these vessels.
