SOUTHEAST ASIAN OPERATORS OPT FOR FUELTRAX SYSTEM

Feb 21, 2024 | Marine fuel & lubricant news

More than 90% of deep sea and offshore support vessel operators working with a global oil company in Southeast Asia have chosen the Fueltrax Electronic Fuel Management System (EFMS) to ensure accurate fuel usage transparency and emissions tracking.

Of 30 ships that implemented a fuel management system at the urging of their oil company customer, 28 of them chose the Fueltrax EFMS system after evaluating the system’s efficiency and cost. The Fueltrax EFMS is said to be the only patented fuel management solution, which measures direct fuel consumption and transfers on board, enabling vessel operators to reduce operational and fuel costs. Its accuracy and stability are achieved by taking direct measurements using Coriolis smart meters to measure mass flow rather than volume. The system consistently measures fuel quality and transmits that data to the Fueltrax operations centre for real-time monitoring.

With those 28 new vessels implementing the EFMS, Fueltrax now has a total of 38 vessels in that oil company’s fleet using the system.

Faiz Azani, Director of Operations Southeast Asia said: “It is really all about cost savings and fuel efficiency, and Fueltrax has the best and most dependable features to guarantee that. Our system’s hardware reliability, durability, and accuracy were the keys to these vessel operators’ choice. They also recognised our superior support in this region and our cost transparency, so they never have to worry about hidden fees.”

With this most recent achievement, Fueltrax says it has further solidified its market position in fuel management systems, allowing vessel operators and their oil company partners to operate more efficiently, increase the sustainability of their operations, and minimise the risk of fuel theft.

Fakhrurrazi Mat Hassan, COO vessel operator Tegas Navigation, said: “The EFMS provides us with accurate real-time data of fuel consumption, which allows us to make informed decisions. With a user-friendly interface and ease of use, it is a valuable tool to generate detailed reports and analyse trends. It has helped us optimise our fuel efficiency and reduce operational costs.”

Nur Syahida Che Zam, GM Dinastia Jati, added: “Fueltrax have set a high standard in the industry for reliability, accuracy, and robust performance. With a track record that is consistent and dependable, Fueltrax ensures that the data it provides is holistic in all aspects of fuel management. Its precision in measuring fuel usage guarantees access to highly accurate consumption data, enabling us to make informed decisions and optimise our operations.”
