Based on the SeaMACS IAS platform, FuelMACS^® incorporates additional functionality for fuel and energy performance management. It offers a valuable SEEMP tool to ship owners, allowing them to monitor and compare their vessel's or fleet's performance fuel performance in real-time and/or based on historical values.

FuelMACS Fuel Performance System Overview

Designed as an onboard tool to save fuel and also as a management tool
Several ships can be monitored and compared at the same time from a management office on shore
Data can be collected live or at regular intervals depending on customer requirements
Existing hardware can be used in order to keep implementation costs down
The system can also be set up with a service link to our service department

Vessel Performance
Fuel Consumption
Engine Performance
Hull Performance

Vessel Performance

For vessel performance management
Vessel speed is included in order to calculate fuel usage in litre per nautical mile (l/nm)

Fuel Consumption

Fuel consumption management is based on fuel flow measurement
Data for both instant and total fuel consumption is provided - e.g. total per hour, total per voyage
Emissions and fuel costs are reported per engine, per data, in total and accumulated

Engine Performance

For engine performance management
Data for engine power is included in order to calculate fuel consumption in grams per kilowatt hour

Hull Performance

The hull performance management measures shaft torque/power versus speed over time
Once the system is set up for the respective vessel, a reference curve is created. The system is then able to detect speed loss over time by performing analysis of vessel speed versus shaft effect

FuelMACS Features

Characterised by high scalability and flexibility, FuelMACS^® allows for definition of vessel-specific indicators - one of the crucial points when evaluating vessel performance over time. The system is designed according to the provisions of the MARPOL convention, which requires a Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) to be development and Energy Efficiency Operational Indicators (EEOI) to be established for all vessels.

The system can incorporate functions for:

Fuel consumption management
Engine performance management
Vessel performance management
Hull performance management and features
Advanced trending
Advanced calculation
Shore based analysis
Automated reports
Data recording
Runtime configurability for dual-fuel
