1 e-navigation: From Paper to Digital General overview Neptune Vessel Information System Preserve the navigator avoid a play station mode on bridge Handling the weather by Seaware StormGeo Jan B. Stockfleth, Sales Manager Chris-Petter Haukedal, Project Manager ENC/ECDIS - y o u r d i g i t a l p a r t n e r -

2 About Nautisk Forlag AS Over 800 vessels are participating in our proven subscription service Nautisk Forlag have annually more than shipments (DHL and post) We stock over different products (plus signs and our leisure department) Total stock of charts is abt (warehouses in Oslo and Singapore) All BA charts are fresh, i.e. corrected to latest NTM when leaving our premises Nautisk Forlag has a very good reputation for our logistics and service

3 ECDIS: Compliance is mandatory July 2009 July 2010 July 2011 July 2012 July 2013 July 2014 July 2015 July 2016 July 2017 July 2018 New Passenger Ships >500gt New Tankers >3000gt New Cargo ships >10000gt New Cargo ships >3000gt Existing Passenger ships >500gt Existing Tankers >3000gt Existing Cargo >50000gt Existing Cargo >20000gt Existing Cargo >10000gt SOLAS Ch V regulation 19.2: Approved June Require ships engaged on international voyages to be fitted with ECDIS.

4 Change of navigation change of business Distribution of Digital Publications (ADP) Handling chart and publication corrections digitally NEPTUNE VIS is now installed onboard over 400 vessels ENC distribution from both Primar and AVCS (UKHO) We believe we are well positioned to provide our customers with objective advice on any questions related to ENC and ECDIS Our turnover of paper charts will decline to 50% of current volume by latest 2014 In the future we believe paper charts will be a only marginal part of our business (15%?) In 2011 we started Print on demand (POD) of Norwegian charts

5 NEPTUNE Vessel Information System keeping your charts and publications up to date Used by 430 ships NTMs (charts & publications) from British Admiralty EFS (Etterretninger for Sjøfarende) from the Norwegian HO Selected for your holdings only Includes the corresponding tracings to each correction Chart Shopping Store for ENCs and paper charts Tailor made, self developed, transfer protocol Efficient Content Transfer Protocol (ECTP)

6 Preserve the navigator e-navigation - different approach, but same tasks One wish to be ahead of the voyage Have positive control of other vessels Find and indentify obstacles and aids for navigation Deviate from course in time in any case not later

7 Preserve the navigator - maintaining focus on a system cluttered bridge Modern bridges are loaded with equipment Numerous hard key buttons Several sub menus for different systems A lot of potential squeaky alarms Screens, displays and alarm lamps that generates disturbing light on the bridge

8 Preserve the navigator - avoid a play station mode on bridge Paper charts: currently familiar difficult manual position plotting creates due caution large physical size chart aids situational awareness ECDIS: low familiarity p.t. automatic position plotting can produce over confidence in accuracy small screens v.s. less situational awareness ease of use results in too little checking and caution which can reduce situational awareness Look out the window! Make a visual control of nearby objects and vessels....simply: navigate

9 Preserve the navigator - remember all settings, not just the contour/depth settings Example #1 Snapshot from a NO Primar ENC cell Base display Safety depth setting: 5 meter Safety contour setting: 10 meter

10 Preserve the navigator - remember all settings, not just the contour/depth settings Example #1 Snapshot from a NO Primar ENC cell Base display Safety depth setting: 5 meter Safety contour setting: 10 meter + Cables/Wrecks theme activated

11 Preserve the navigator - remember all settings, not just the contour/depth settings Example #2 Snapshot from a NO Primar ENC cell Base display Safety depth setting: 5 meter Safety contour setting: 10 meter

12 Preserve the navigator - remember all settings, not just the contour/depth settings Example #2 Snapshot from a NO Primar ENC cell Base display Safety depth setting: 5 meter Safety contour setting: 10 meter + Cables/Wrecks theme activated

13 Preserve the navigator - remember all settings, not just the contour/depth settings Example #3 Red and green flash coded as land objects Base display Adjusted display

14 Preserve the navigator - how to utilize the possibilities to your advantage and avoid mistakes? A comprehensive approach to implementation of e navigation, not only the ECDIS hardware... The concept for implementation is based on the experience that IT solutions alone is not enough to obtain business benefits The introduction of new technology must be aligned with change of processes / way of working and the knowledge of the people operating the new systems

15 Meet the ECDIS requirement - as soon as possible! Double ECDIS installation => paperless navigation Save costs, work and time Always all charts available onboard corrected! Recruit (and retain) the younger officers Save fuel Sail compliant and not at least: Sail safe! Do it right do it once

21 Parametric Rolling Avoidance Fully Integrated in the Ship-Routing software The most reliable and advanced onboard PR avoidance system Parametric Rolling Warning Seaware recently launched a new Dynamic Stability module based on a new method developed in co-operation with Wallenius Marine and The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. The new method takes account to the: Detailed hull form Actual loading condition Roll damping Wave spectrum shape Ship speed and relative wave direction

22 Sloshing Avoidance Fully Integrated in the routing software Sloshing in LNG Membrane tanks can seriously damage the tanks. Our sloshing module makes sure the ship is routed outside danger areas. The sloshing module was developed following extensive analysis of 20 sloshing events reported by a customer s LNG vessels. The majority of these sloshing events occurred at high filling levels The basic principle of the sloshing criteria model is based on the amount of relevant ship motion energy within frequency bands related to the natural liquid motion frequency for the current filling height of each tank.

23 Fleet Manager Integrated Decision Support System 1. Reduce emissions 2. Reduce fuel cost 3. Zero Cargo Damage / (e.g. Parametric Rolling) 4. Optimize voyage Ship By: Using optimal and tested calculations Adding forecasting quality Adding calculation power Automating data flow / Integrating modules Automating decision support input Distributing information Data Forecaster Operator Integration of systems: Nautisk Forlag + Seaware!
