Innovation, Smart Tech, Electrification, Oh my.

The shift toward low- and zero-carbon marine operations continues to accelerate. Allswater works with industry partners on electrification, alternative fuel and decarbonization projects, including new designs and retrofits for vessels ranging from lobster boats to ocean-going ships.

• Sensoring of vessels to determine energy requirements and trends
• Studies related to the effectiveness of new fuels and technologies
• Evaluation of new propulsion system designs
• Designing vessels to suit future low carbon fuels
• Designing a new breed of near shore battery-first electric vessels.

Using 3D LiDAR scanning, we capture accurate as-built geometry in high-density point clouds containing millions of data points, typically to within a few millimetres. Surveys are completed by members of our design team, who understand which spaces, systems and details are most important to the work ahead.

• Capture real-to-life data and measurements
• Eliminate the need to revisit the vessel or site
• Pre-fabricate structures with confidence
• Reduce the risk of missing measurements
• Better detection of interferences
• Create surface models, or hybrid models from point cloud data
• Scanning of hull shape for stability assessments

Improving vessel efficiency often means challenging established approaches without losing sight of what already works. Allswater combines new ideas, modern technology and proven marine practices to identify practical improvements in performance, energy use and operations.

• Voyage profiling and analysis – understand where and how energy is used
• Finding and innovating improved hullforms to create great seakeeping vessels such as our OPUS series
• Improving overall hull resistance and efficiency of a traditional design

Underway services, a joint entity between Allswater and Horizon Maritime, focusses on leveraging best in class products and services in remote support, employee health monitoring, maintenance automation, and emissions reporting, specifically for remote marine applications. Our goal is to improve overall efficiency of crew and processes offshore, to reduce time on the water or downtime for the vessel.

• Leverage immersive digital twin to plan physical and operational retrofits
• Provide data driven insights for highlighting the health of employees and crew for HR departments and executives
• Remotely support with experts, automate maintenance tasks
• Provide real time monitoring, Energy planning and compliance reporting
• Professional services for refit management and engineering
