The two companies have enetered into a long-term partnership that will deliver a weather routing solution to ChartCo's customers and it will will also offer further MeteoGroup services to complement its single platform-based portfolio.
Martin Taylor, ceo of ChartCo, said: “Our quest was to build a flexible, cost-effective, integrated weather offering suitable for a wide range of vessels. I still find it incredible that the majority of vessels only have access to the very basic weather warnings from their Navtex system.
“This partnership supports our vision to bring innovative, valuable services to a wide range of sectors within commercial shipping.”
