P&I club to subsidise trials of AI-powered risk-detection software
NorthStandard will offer its members the opportunity to pilot digitalisation technology to reduce onboard risks
NorthStandard has become the first protection and indemnity (P&I) club to provide financial support to shipowning members to pilot digitalisation technology to reduce onboard risks.
The UK-headquartered club has offered to fully subsidise a pilot programme of technology that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to identify otherwise undetectable risks on ships.
“Our goal is to help reduce risks by making impactful technologies easier to try, measure and adopt,” said NorthStandard global head of loss prevention Colin Gillespie.
NorthStandard members can test ShipIn Systems’ base-level FleetVision on a vessel to gather evidence on its use to reduce risk and improve operations. Participating members can evaluate safety, compliance and efficiency benefits within their own context and generate data to inform broader rollout decisions, said NorthStandard.
FleetVision uses routine shipboard closed-circuit TV to generate actionable insights to help crews and shoreside teams reinforce best practices, strengthen situational awareness and improve operational performance.
One module has fire-prevention capabilities. It fuses optical and thermal sensor data to detect heat anomalies, leaks, smoke or haze, to provide real-time alerts to crews on board and teams ashore for immediate action.
“Fully subsidising a FleetVision pilot for our members allows them to learn quickly and directly from real-world use, strengthening safety cultures across the maritime community,” said Mr Gillespie.
NorthStandard’s free pilot scheme builds on the success of the collaboration between the P&I club and ShipIn through Get Set!, NorthStandard’s safety efficiency technologies programme that accelerates the evaluation and adoption of proven safety innovations.
“Expanding access to FleetVision in partnership with NorthStandard could mark a step-change in reducing risk to life and commercial losses across fleets,” said ShipIn Systems chief executive Osher Perry.
“This program gives members a straightforward path to trial the platform, gather evidence on outcomes, and scale usage in line with their needs.”
