GTT group company Ascenz Marorka has been granted Type Approval certification for its Shaft Power Limitation (ShaPoLi) solution by classification society DNV.
The solution helps ship-owners and operators comply with the IMO regulations aimed at curbing GHG emissions and carbon intensity by 40% before 2030. The certification confirms that the Ascenz Marorka ShaPoLi system complies with IMO resolution MEPC 335(76) and can be used on vessels subjected to EEXI overridable power limitation.
The solution monitors propeller shaft power and signals an alert in the wheelhouse if the shaft power exceeds the EEXI calculated maximum power. The system logs the periods where the limit was exceeded and enables crew to give comments. The solution can be connected to the Ascenz Marorka online platform and thus offer real-time monitoring and optimisation capabilities to users on-board and on-shore. These features are believed to make Ascenz Marorka’s ShaPoLi a unique solution on the market.
Anouar Kiassi, VP Digital, GTT, said: “We are proud to launch the most advanced ShaPoLi solution on the market. Beyond monitoring compliance with the regulation, we offer our customers a full suite of modules to help them reduce their emissions and optimize the performance of their vessels”.
