Kongsberg Digital’s Vessel Insight offers a streamlined approach to maritime digitalisation, allowing shipowners like Posidonia to tap into their vessel data’s potential fully. This integration allows Posidonia to access real-time data from its fleet, providing valuable insights to enhance operations, minimise fuel consumption, and support sustainability efforts. Furthermore, through the K-fleet application suite by Kongsberg Digital, Posidonia will benefit from a comprehensive range of tools that assist in areas such as maintenance planning, inventory management, procurement, quality and safety management, documentation, and fleet operation.

“The maritime industry is facing mounting pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, and digital solutions such as Vessel Insight are crucial in helping shipowners meet environmental goals. Posidonia is at the forefront of maritime digitalisation through this partnership, demonstrating its dedication to sustainable shipping practices,” Alex Ikonomopoulos, COO at Posidonia said.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Posidonia, a prominent player in the Brazilian maritime sector. This partnership underscores Kongsberg Digital’s dedication to advancing digital transformation in maritime hubs globally.”, says Christopher Bergsager, VP Growth Global Maritime in Kongsberg Digital.
