Fuel efficiency and reducing emissions are at the forefront of every vessel operator’s mind, AST Reygar is leading the charge with their groundbreaking Fuel App, a state-of-the-art solution poised to transform maritime operations through real-time fuel efficiency insights.
The Power of Real-Time Monitoring
AST Reygar’s Fuel App addresses the urgent need for reduced fuel consumption and emissions within the maritime sector. Fleet operators have traditionally relied on historical data to set fuel efficiency targets. However, using real-time data means decisions made by vessel crews will directly improve the operational performance of the vessel.
Empowering Crew Decisions
A standout feature of the Fuel App is its ability to deliver live fuel efficiency readouts against predefined targets, displayed on a tablet on the vessel’s bridge. This intuitive visual representation allows crews to instantly see their fuel usage, encouraging the adoption of fuel-saving practices such as maintaining optimal speeds between jobs. The app’s immediate feedback mechanism promotes a culture of continuous improvement and accountability among crews.
Bridging the Gap – Shore and Crew Collaboration
The Fuel App goes beyond the vessel, offering shore side teams access to the same fuel efficiency data and visualisations through daily reports. This transparency fosters collaboration, enabling shore side teams to provide targeted advice and strategies to further enhance fuel efficiency. The shared data facilitates meaningful conversations aimed at improving overall vessel operations, creating a cohesive working environment.
Leveraging Analytics for Long-Term Gains
When integrated with AST Reygar’s analytics tool, the Fuel App’s data offers even more value. Shore side teams can track performance trends by vessel and crew over any period, using leaderboards to identify top performers and areas needing improvement. This analytical approach allows fleet operators to recognise and replicate best practices, driving continuous improvement in fuel consumption and emissions.
Beyond Fuel Efficiency
The Fuel App’s capabilities extend beyond fuel consumption monitoring. It can also track other critical aspects of vessel operations, such as ride comfort for passengers, time spent at excessive engine loads, throttle position, average speeds in transit etc. By monitoring these parameters, the app ensures the longevity of the vessel’s health and overall operational performance.
Taking control of your Fleet Operations
With AST Reygar’s Fuel App, fleet operators can gain a powerful tool to take control of their operations. The app’s ability to monitor and improve fuel efficiency in real-time, combined with its robust analytics and diverse operational target setting, makes it an indispensable asset for modern maritime operations.
“Here at AST Reygar, we are dedicated to innovation and improving operational performance for the maritime sector.” Said Daniel Clark, General Manager at AST Reygar. “Our Fuel App more than just reduces your fuel consumption and emissions, it can help improve many areas of maritime performance, saving money, time, and creating a more sustainable future.”
