Transas Scandinavia has won an order to supply A P M?ller?s ships with an extensive ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information System) package comprising 160 dual Navi-Sailor 2400 ECDIS complete with radar overlay, a full world folio of Transas electronic charts and a subscription to the chart correction service. The company will also supply the ships with its weather forecast software, Weather Wizard. The package will also include an office ECDIS system for the A P M?ller head office in Copenhagen, and six simulator training systems for installation at the Maersk training centre, SIMAC and Kogtved Navigational Academy. Transas says that the order was won after A P M?ller installed an evaluation system on the Maersk container vessel Chastine Maersk at the Lindoe shipyard in Denmark. Installations of the dual ECDIS systems onboard the vessels will be carried out by the shipping company?s engineers, for whom Transas Scandinavia will arrange a dedicated installation-training course at its premises in Gothenburg. The main contractor for the order is Infocom Systems A/S, which is Transas Scandinavia?s business partner in Denmark. Infocom is a part of the A.P. M?ller Group and 100% owned by Maersk Data.
