Unique digital twin model

When high frequency perfomance data of a vessel is gathered, AI can be used to create a digital twin model.

In Route Pilot AI, this model is used to predict the performance of a vessel in changing conditions.

With machine learning, every new voyage contributes to continuously improving the model.

Optimized voyage power settings

Route Pilot AI provides ship and shore-based personnel with a user-friendly tool for maximizing fuel savings throughout a voyage.

The digital twin model enables simulations of operational performance in forecasted environmental conditions.

With Route Pilot AI, an upcoming voyage can be planned in the most energy-efficient way within the operational requirements and constraints in predicted weather and sea conditions:

• Calculate optimal power settings
• Calculate alternative ETAs and/or ETDs
• Compare alternative routes
• Choose the best vessel for operating a specific route

During an ongoing voyage, the remaining part of the voyage can be recalculated and re-optimized on the basis of the latest available forecast – all it takes is the click of a button.

Key benefits of Route Pilot AI

Route Pilot AI will ensure that every voyage is the most efficient one. Here are the key benefits of the system:

• In line with CII regulations: Enhanced fuel efficiency and emissions reductions on every voyage
• Turns high-frequency vessel data into operational actions for upcoming voyages
• Optimizes voyage power settings by taking internal and external factors into consideration
• Updates power optimization at any time during an ongoing voyage at the click of a button
• Increases operational transparency and improves communication between ship and shore
• Minimizes operational uncertainties through accurate ETA and consumption calculations
