Wärtsilä Corporation, Trade Press release, 5 March 2018 at 3:00 PM E. Europe Standard Time

Eniram, a Wärtsilä company, has launched Eniram Mobile to offer real-time decision-making support via mobile notifications. Eniram Mobile, which has been co-developed together with Royal Caribbean Cruises, ensures that key personnel receive important information in a timely fashion, both onboard and shoreside.

This solution was created to support situational awareness based on collected historical and real-time data coupled with predictive analytics. By making these insights transparent through mobile technology, captains, fleet managers, and senior executives get instant access to the information needed for effective and timely decision making. It makes planning more effective in view of safety and operations efficiency management.

“Now is the time for the industry to harness the benefits of situational awareness. Eniram Mobile offers an unprecedented level of transparency that not only leads to better decision making, but which also helps our customers develop their ways of working. It enables them to react fast on potential operational issues based on analytical insights,” says Johan Backas, Managing Director at Eniram.

The mobile notifications cover various operational aspects including safety, energy management and security. Decision makers get the latest information for speed over ground, trim, list, high wind and weather forecasts. The insights delivered via the mobile notifications are based on available vessel data and the analytical capabilities of the Eniram Insight Factory, which is in the centre of Eniram’s solutions.

“We’ve anxiously been waiting for this. We can now distribute the right data to the right people to take the right decisions at the right time. The feedback has been unequivocally positive, even from the most senior captains,” says Patrik Dahlgren, SVP, Global Marine Operations for Celebrity Cruises, a Royal Caribbean Cruises company.

Eniram has been delivering mobile notifications since 2017 for Royal Caribbean, and the service is now generally available. Eniram Mobile is being officially launched at Seatrade 2018 and is now being offered to all customer segments – cruise, ferry, LNG, container, bulker, and tanker – as part of other Eniram solutions.
