Drone ServicesAlbion Marine’s R&D team has come up with a unique way to carry out certain survey and/or inspection requirements using a purpose-built drone base. This drone utilization is a highly sophisticated, safe, efficient, and cost-effective approach. The many advantages of using a drone include: • Safety: Inspectors remain a safe distance while getting a close-up camera view. • Prevention: The relative low cost of drone inspections is prompting many companies to use them to do inspections more often to detect potential issues earlier and avoid expensive repairs. • Data: The archivable data obtained by a drone provides a meticulous record of a major asset’s condition over time. • Recompense: Using a drone to assess the condition of a damaged or dysfunctional asset can speed up the payment of a liability insurance claim and reduce any related costly downtime. |

Digital Twins
|
Albion Marine Solutions aims to provide new industry tools that will enable vessel brokers, project managers, and inspectors to remotely access vessels, saving them time and money while lowering the risk of unforeseen conditions and change orders. A digital twin is a digital representation of a physical entity or framework. Data can be analyzed, and systems can be monitored by combining the virtual and physical worlds in simulations to avoid unintended consequences, reduce downtime, discover new opportunities, and even plan for the future. The technology underlying digital twins has evolved to include large objects such as machinery, buildings, and even ships. Benefits of the Digital Twin in Shipping 1. Fleet Optimization Through Virtual Ship Control System Transition 2. Improving Port and Terminal Operations 3. Situational awareness in terms of operational parameters 4. Supply Chain Optimization from Start to Finish 5. Increased Security Ensures Safety |
