Maritime eco-efficiency information specialists Fathom today launched a new guide to ship performance management, the company announced in an emailed statement.

"The need to measure and monitor bunker fuel consumption is well understood, however taking the right steps and selecting the equipment most appropriate for a particular operation is far more complex," Fathom said.

The guide analyses over 50 technology solutions that can support ship performance management, including fuel flow meters, torque meters, and software solutions, detailing their unique selling points, potential fuel savings, associated costs, installation considerations, and maturity. 

Fathom says the guide also describes how to build up performance management infrastructure in a modular "from sensors to systems" approach to suit the needs of a ship and its operations.

"In an increasingly competitive industry the pressure to monitor and streamline shipping operations is stronger than ever, making this publication an imperative handbook for any person or company seeking to learn about or act upon ship performance management," commented Catherine Austin, Director, Fathom.
