ABB signs first Tekomar XPERT contract with CCPO

Importer
Ship manager CCPO is the first to adopt ABB Ability™ Tekomar XPERT for fleet.

CCPO offers high quality service to its charter clients and professional ship management for 111 of its own and third-party ships. Under the terms of the deal, which was signed in July, Tekomar XPERT for fleet will cover 55 of the ship management company’s vessels. CCPO was an early adopter of the smart engine performance diagnostics software, Tekomar XPERT, and adopted it during its initial release in 2015.

The latest Tekomar XPERT for fleet web application incorporates the features found in the original Tekomar XPERT application with additional fleet functionality specifically developed to support management decisions, producing key performance indicators (KPIs) covering engine health, optimization potential and fleet performance benchmarking. These KPIs provide a helicopter view of engine performance across an entire fleet regardless of engine make, type and age. Ships and fleets are listed according to current performance and provide the technical management with an immediate indication on their status.

“We are always looking to adopt the latest technological advances to minimize our environmental footprint; this is a key driver for us when procuring services and products,” said Christoph Gessner, Managing Director, CCPO “With Tekomar XPERT for fleet, through optimizing our engine health, we can minimize costs and the environmental footprint, and in return we can pass on these benefits to our customers.”

Beat Güttinger, Head of Tekomar, ABB Turbocharging said: “We are continuously looking to improve our offerings to more advanced solutions and supporting our customers to differentiate themselves in the market. Our long-standing positive relationship with CCPO, being an early adopter of our latest web application on CCPO’s entire fleet, demonstrates their confidence in ABB’s ability to deliver innovative solutions to the market.”

CCPO’s subscription to the Tekomar XPERT for fleet solution includes additional e-learning, fleet administration and multiple access levels functionality.
