We are thrilled to announce that the GASS Project has successfully achieved its first major milestone: the report about our Digital Twin Architecture. This achievement represents a significant leap forward in our mission to lower greenhouse gas emissions in the oceanic shipping industry.

What is the Digital Twin Architecture?

The Digital Twin Architecture is a sophisticated framework designed to create virtual replicas of physical systems, allowing for historical data, real-time monitoring, simulation, and optimisation. By integrating advanced data analytics, IoT sensors, and Artificial-Intelligence-driven Machine Learning models, this architecture aims to empower optimised vessel safety, performance, and just-in-time arrival and reduce fuel consumption.

Key Highlights:

• Comprehensive Data Integration: Seamlessly combines data from diverse sources to create a holistic view of the physical system.

• Use Case Overview: What needs to be addressed for the various stakeholders.

• Scalable Solutions: Designed to scale across various ship models used for oceanic shipping, ensuring broad applicability and impact.

"I am thrilled to announce that we have reached our first milestone on this project. This achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and collaboration within this consortium. I’m enthusiastic about the road ahead and confident in our team’s energy and commitment as we move towards our next milestone. Let’s keep the momentum going!" Jeanneth Nodland Andreassen, GASS Project Manager (Director Projects in NAVTOR)

Looking Ahead

The completion of Milestone 1 lays a strong foundation for the next phases of the GASS Project. As we continue to innovate, the Digital Twin Architecture will play a central role in transforming vessel performance, making them more agile, efficient, and sustainable.

We would like to thank our dedicated team and partners for their relentless efforts in reaching this important milestone. Together, we are shaping the sustainable future of the maritime shipping industry.
