INDUSTRYThe Business Challenge
Stena Line, a major ferry operator, needed to cut CO2 emissions by 5% but didn’t have a unified system for high-quality, high resolution weather data across their fleet, impacting efficiencies in fuel consumption and their ability to reduce emissions.
Stena Line partnered with Ciklum to build a cloud-based service designed to provide weather data from diverse sources. This data fed into software which optimized engine power in real-time to cut CO2 emissions and move towards more sustainable shipping.
Ciklum’s Approach: Engineering the Solution
Ciklum worked closely with the client to develop a .NET/F# solution, consolidating different data sources using advanced logics. This collaboration produced an Azure cloud-based API and a web application, providing the vessels with real-time weather forecasts. This system ensures access to current, comprehensive weather data for improved route planning and operational efficiency.
The Results
Achieved annual fuel savings of 5%, equivalent to 23,000 tonnes of fuel and 70,000 tonnes of CO2.
Achieved quick time-to-market with an exceptionally low bug ratio.
Saved on satellite-based connection costs through efficient data transmission.
