Agreement RINA - IB for the development of software dedicated to the management of the ships



The Italian society of classification and certification RINA has started a partnership with computer service company IB of Rapallo (Genoa), that management is engaged in asset projects and is specialized in the planning, production and implementation of informative systems dedicated to the naval field between which detaches the InfoSHIP platform that - the IB managing director has remembered, Maurizio Ricci - is the "solution of IB turns to satisfy the various necessities of technical management of the naval world".

From the understanding between RINA and IB the offer of InfoSHIP is born EGO, a system dedicated to the governance energetic of the ships, with the objective to reduce the emissions in atmosphere and the consumption in way consisting (until 10% of saving). EGO comprises sections/modules for the management of the travels and the cycle of the fuel, the optimization of the order ship, the propulsive efficiency, the not propulsive consumption, united to specific instruments of analysis and reportistica to support of the decisions. The software, that it can have a gradual implementation, constitutes an operating support online, in conformity with the outline of the SEEMP (Ship Energy Efficiency Plan Management) and as implication allows a optimization of the maintenance activities. The system is completed by InfoSHIP ELB Electronic Logbook that manages in logic paperless all completely the necessities of the ship in topic of reporting (included annex the MARPOL and the Logbooks of covered and car) and ship formalities (IMO FAL Form).

"The flexibility of this software, date from the wide possibility of chosen between the various modules - Paolo Moretti has explained, general manager business Marine linens of Group RINA - affords to adapt it to the necessities of the customer, being covered the requirements of various types of unit, from tanker and the cargo until the great cruise ships. For its correcting I use is previewed a period of formation for earth and edge staff. In our experience we have stated energy savings comprised between the 5 and 8% relatively to cargos constituents of the cruise ships, from the 1 to 3% which had to the optimization of the trim and from the 2 to 4% to the increase of the propulsive efficiency. Thanks to the consultation of the data in real time the crew has the possibility to optimize the consumption already while browsing. Through appropriate control panels and diagrams more evolven and complexes, the earth staff can constantly monitor the courses and the historian, concentrating himself on the fleet performances and therefore on participations improved to you to wide phantom".
