New partnership brings emission-reduction tool to Greek maritime market

A new partnership aims to support the deployment of a machine-learning platform to reduce emissions in the Greek maritime market.

Intra Mare, an international marine sales and naval architect organisation, will work with GreenSteam to promote the latter's machine learning-based vessel performance optimisation software.

The machine-learning platform uses data to measure every component of fuel consumption and converts this into simple, clear and accurate vessel performance metrics - this is then ultimately used to save costs and reduce emissions for operators.

The Greek shipping industry recently announced its preference for owners, operators and charterers to take shared accountability for vessel emissions and their reduction.

George Gerassimou, Managing Director at Intra Mare, said: "GreenSteam’s vessel optimisation services enable us to champion the latest technology that will support our vision for the future, working in tandem with the interests of the Greek market.

"Environmental sustainability has never been more relevant and is directly tied to commercial success. GreenSteam sets up a virtuous cycle of saving fuel costs while also operating in a more environmentally sustainable way."
