Gaslog, an international owner, operator and manager of 35 LNG carriers and 1 FSRU, has selected Propulsion Analytics, a leading marine performance software provider, to develop a customized version of the Engine Hyper Cube® platform tailored specifically for GasLog’s fleet. The platform will be enabled by Kongsberg Digital’s Vessel Insight cloud infrastructure.
The bespoke platform builds on Propulsion Analytics’ core Engine Hyper Cube® application, which performs continuous engine performance analysis using high-frequency data from onboard engine sensors. This data is seamlessly integrated via Kongsberg Digital’s Vessel Insight Vessel-to-Cloud infrastructure, building on the success of the existing infrastructure onboard the vessels since the agreement in 2022, when Gaslog connected its entire fleet to Vessel Insight. By synthesizing continuous engine performance analysis with insights from various other data sources, the platform enables improved engine condition assessment, optimizing performance and supporting data-driven engine maintenance decisions.
The primary objectives of this advanced platform are:
Enhancing Engine Availability: Developing advanced diagnostics and predictive maintenance strategies to improve vessel reliability and reduce engine downtime.
Optimizing Fuel Efficiency and Minimizing Environmental Impact: Reducing greenhouse gas emissions through improved engine performance.
Data-Driven Predictive Maintenance: The coupling of continuous engine performance monitoring, prognostics and optimized operation with long-term statistics and reliability-based engineering principles will lead to a more flexible overhauling planning, in line with LNG carrier trading profiles and dry dock schedules.
