GTT’s unit Ascenz Marorka has secured a contract from France’s Gazocean to equip the latter’s six managed LNG carriers with its smart shipping solution.
According to a statement by GTT, the contract includes access to Ascenz Marorka’s smart shipping platform for managing vessel performance and monitoring LNG cargoes, along with automatic data collection from onboard sensors across the fleet.
This data will be used to produce performance and environmental reports for Gazocean, as well as its shipowner and charterer clients, with the goal of optimizing energy efficiency.
GTT said the automation of these reports would “significantly” reduce the administrative burden on the crew, allowing them to focus on critical operational tasks.
Additionally, the French LNG containment giant said shore-based teams would benefit from enhanced data quality and less time spent on manual checks and report formatting.
The contract also covers weather routing services and provides access to Ascenz Marorka’s fleet center, which, it said, aims to improve route safety and operational efficiency.
Before this deal, Ascenz Marorka won contracts for BGC’s LNG carrier, GasLog’s LNG fleet, and Jovo’s LNG carriers.
Gazocean is a unit of NYK. Besides the six LNG vessels, it operates four LPG carriers.
France LNG Shipping (FLS), a 50/50 joint venture between NYK and France’s Geogas LNG, owns the six LNG carriers.
Infrastructure fund CVC DIF, which owns a stake in Geigas LNG, recently agreed to sell a stake in FLS to KKR-backed Ocean Yield.
The FLS LNG carriers are the 174,000-cbm Elisa Larus and Elisa Aquila, both chartered by units of French state-owned utility EDF, and LNG Adventure, LNG Endeavour, LNG Endurance, and LNG Enterprise, all chartered by French energy giant TotalEnergies.
