Riviera Maritime Media – News Content Hub – IoT platform integrated on tugs and OSVs
Damen Shipyards, one of the most prolific producers of tugboats and service vessels, has partnered with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) to develop an integrated internet-of-things (IoT) platform.
Together, Damen and Tata will connect sensors on board these vessels to programs for monitoring fuel consumption and machinery condition. Up to 10,000 to 15,000 sensors per vessel will generate streams of data to provide insights into vessel operations and performance and be fed into Damen’s Connected Platform linked to its engineering and enterprise, resources and planning platforms.
