ABB software to enable energy savings and performance gains for Tallink’s new ferry MyStar
In a repeat order for ABB, a new passenger and car ferry MyStar will join the growing number of vessels to benefit from sustainability and efficiency gains enabled by ABB Ability™ Marine Advisory Systems – OCTOPUS
MyStar, due for delivery from the Finnish Rauma Marine Constructions shipyard in 2022, will be deployed by the leading Estonian ferry operator Tallink on the 80-km trans-Baltic route between Tallinn, Estonia, and Helsinki, Finland.
OCTOPUS optimization software will collect and transfer operational data from the vessel’s onboard systems to the ABB AbilityTM Marine Fleet Portal – a solution that provides remote monitoring and a detailed performance analysis. Based on these insights, OCTOPUS offers operational advice, empowering the shipboard personnel to make informed decisions about the way the ferry is operated and optimize its performance.
