Eniram shortlisted for the 2010 Seatrade Awards

DTA is an onboard system for dynamically monitoring and optimizing the vessel trim where

even small adjustments in the trim will have a substantial impact on vessel performance,

resulting in lower fuel consumption and dramatically reduced emissions.

Traditionally, identifying optimal trim is complicated by factors such as speed, draught, depth and internal weight alterations. DTA collects prevailing trim, propulsion power and vessel

movement data and with multidimensional analysis incorporates information on current

conditions, such as weather and speed, to calculate and display the optimum trim. Optimum

trim is then presented in an intuitive graphical user interface, guiding the crew to make

appropriate ballast adjustments.

The Seatrade Awards recognize those who have made outstanding contributions over the last year for safe, efficient and environmentally friendly shipping. Eniram are shortlisted in the ‘Protection of the marine and atmospheric environment’ category. The final winner in each category will be selected by the judges in London on Monday 24 May 2010.

“We are delighted with this news”, said Philip Padfield, CEO, Eniram Group. “We have been

working towards environmentally friendlier seafaring for several years. By utilizing DTA many of our customers are saving over 1,000 tonnes of fuel and 3,000 tonnes of carbon emissions per year, and all of our customers combined are saving well over a hundred thousand tonnes per year. This nomination shows that our approach is really addressing the big issues in the industry today, and in the future.”
