“We are proud to be partnering with Sinochem, an innovative and growing shipping company in Asia,” said DNV GL - Software ceo Are Tjønn. “This is yet another sign of DNV GL and ShipManager’s strong growth, both in China but also in the tanker segment.”
The chemical shipping arm of Sinochem International operates its vessels from subsidiary Aoxing Shipmanagement's offices in Shanghai, Singapore and Japan.
The company will now benefit from a standardized and integrated system for operating a growing global fleet which should help in optimising operations and improving performance and efficiency as it transitions from its previous internally developed systems.
“As an international player in shipping, we require a global fleet management system to manage vessels in a differentiated, best-in-class manner, ensuring that all functional areas are integrated,” Sinochem International Logistics vice gm Zhang Xin .
“Our business relies highly on a flexible, intelligent and standardised fleet management system. Therefore, we have decided to launch the project to work closely with DNV GL. Together we will implement ShipManager to meet all our current and future requirements,” he added.
The ShipManager fleet management solution including the Technical, Procurement, Crewing, QHSE and Analyzer modules, supports vessels and fleets in all technical, operational and compliance aspects. It is being developed to include Chinese language capabilities, which no doubt aided in the sealing of the deal with Sinochem, and will further strengthen the product for the Asian market.
