Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) has entered into an agreement with DeepSea Technologies to implement a comprehensive fleet-wide deployment of DeepSea’s Cassandra Performance Monitoring platform.
The strategic partnership will deepen EPS’ existing commitment to exploring digital solutions and comes after an extensive trial process on the accuracy of DeepSea’s high-frequency AI performance models. By leveraging DeepSea’s Cassandra system, EPS will monitor its diverse fleet in real-time, through AI-generated digital twins of vessel machinery. The fleet spans across multiple segments, including bulk, tanker, gas, container, and PCTC vessels. The implementation of this advanced technology will enable EPS to harness high-frequency data across all segments.
EPS is regarded as an industry leader in the adoption of innovative technology. Notably, the company is distinguished by its modern and diverse fleet composition equipped with high-frequency sensors. These sensors facilitate the collection of granular data, providing insights into fleet performance. DeepSea Technologies, a specialist in high-frequency data in the shipping industry, brings expertise in AI modelling and data aggregation. Since its inception, DeepSea has been dedicated to advancing high-frequency data solutions in maritime operations.
The collaboration between EPS and DeepSea Technologies will equip EPS with precise and detailed modelling and analytics. The Cassandra solution will deliver the most advanced and current understanding of the entire fleet’s performance, enabling EPS to make well-informed and dynamic decisions in real-time. The enhanced decision-making capability will allow EPS to minimise fuel consumption, reduce GHG emissions, and support its decarbonisation goals.
EPS Fleet Performance Manager Pavlos Karagiannidis said: “As we embark on this journey of digital transformation, harnessing the power of DeepSea’s Cassandra platform, we’re not just optimizing performance. We are charting a course towards a more sustainable and efficient future for maritime operations.”
DeepSea CEO Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos added: “We are very excited to start rolling out our solution across EPS’ diverse fleet and look forward to continuing to improve our offerings through the feedback of such a leading player in the industry.”
