Bureau Veritas to supply Ascenz’s Shipulse

Shipulse captures critical shipboard data covering fuel consumption, bunkering, engine, hull and propeller activity to help monitor performance management and compliance, as well as efficiency, safety and environmental objectives.

Chia Yoong Hui, CEO of Ascenz, said: “The key value of Shipulse is to bring critical performance information as accurately and seamlessly as possible to shipowners.”

The agreement will see Bureau Veritas market Shipulse across its network, offering complementary services and analysis tools based on data analysis needs across fleets, ship modelling capabilities and the ability to integrate BV software – such as weather routing and trim optimisation.

Shipulse’s CarbonComply module supports EU MRV monitoring and reporting requirements as it enables automated monitoring and reporting of ship CO2 emissions under EU-MRV regulation requirements.

CarbonComply can register voyages automatically without the need for manual calculations to breakdown fuel consumption or emissions on a per voyage basis.

The system is able to detect and classify different voyage stages such as sea passages, maneuvering, drifting and to identify when a ship is either moored or at anchor. This allows for greater granularity from profiling emissions associated with a sea passage versus that from time spent when anchored.
