Maps
Shows the location of all vessels in the fleet and their main parameters in near real time. What parameters that will be shown is customizable depending on available data onboard the ship.
Blueflow Energy Management System is an intuitive software focusing on the maritime industry and its special requirements
Blueflow Online™ provides a versatile tool when following up your ships’ energy consumption. Centralized internet servers continuosly monitors every ship and records information about fuel consumption, position, speed and much more. Powerful statistic functions are used to generate reports and provides the user with full control of the fleet situation. Blueflow continuously develops new functionality after our customers requests.
Blueflow Onboard™ integrates with various other onboard systems and flowmeters to monitor fuel and energy consumption and other parameters in real time. Pararameter data are sent to Blueflow Online for reporting, analysis and verification.
Feature examples:
- Flexible and user friendly report builder.
- HTML, PDF, and Excel reports.
- Get reports via scheduled emails.
- Generate reports based on routes with automatic route detection.
- Analyze data with correlation reports.
- Analyze data with scrollable line charts.
- Follow up and verify fuel-saving measures.
Blueflow Online is available whereever you are
Routes and locations - Auto detected
Locations are used to put routes together. With routes, it is possible to compare for instance fuel efficiency for different trips on the same route.
Area filter reports
Very powerful visual tool which allows you to draw a graphic area that your report will be based on. For example an analyses of shallow water impact or berth reports. You decide what parameters the report will contain in the selected area.
Standard reports
A standard report aggregates data in tabular format with support for bar chart visualization. Which aggregate function is used depends on the parameter. The most common aggregate functions are average and summation. Parameters that are defined per time unit are normally aggregated with the average aggregate function, e.g. consumption per hour (L/h), speed (kts). Parameters that are accumulated over time are normally aggregated with the summation aggregate function, e.g. accumulated consumption (L), distance (nm). Filters can also be added e.g speed below 1 knot or wind below 5 m/s.
Extensive analyses
Powerful functionality for analysis of vessel parameters at a specific time while also showing where on the map the vessel was located at that point in time.
Advanced correlation reports
A correlation report presents a graph that shows the correlation between multiple parameters. From Wikipedia: “Correlations are useful because they can indicate a predictive relationship that can be exploited in practice.”
Histograms
Create histograms in endless variations, depending on your needs. For example, what is the highest engine load in relation to the running time of the engine.
High Performance data processing
All data processing and report generation regardless of the scope or in time have very short response times, making the system user-friendly and very effective. This is because of Blueflows completely proprietary “Big data” computing processes.
Blueflow Onboard™ integrates with various other onboard systems and flowmeters to monitor fuel and energy consumption and other paramters in real time. Pararameter data are sent to Blueflow Online for reporting, analysis and verification.
Various displays can be installed for eco-driving and monitoring of energy consumers.
Feature examples:
- Learning how to optimize the ship’s fuel economy by minimizing consumption per distance, e.g. kg/nm.
- Learning how g/kWh is affected on varous generator loads and number of generators started.
- Using fuel trip meters to record fuel and energy consumptions over an arbitrary time period.
- Presenting customized views depending on which parameters are monitored.
All Blueflow Onboard views can be displayed using a regular web browser
The display above presents the main view in Blueflow Onboard™
The main view provides real-time information like fuel economy, load, trim, relative wind and other important parameters for efficient propulsion.
ON THE BRIDGE - FUEL PROFILE - OPTIMIZE SPEED
Automatically builds a fuel profile showing the vessel’s fuel consumption at different speeds. Predicts fuel consumption if increasing or slowing down speed. This feature helps to optimize the speed for reduced fuel consumption
