The ‘Digital Smart Ship Guidelines’ set out the requirements to grant class notations, ‘Digital Smart Ship’, for the ships equipped with systems utilising digital technology, such as energy efficiency analysis, hull or machinery monitoring, sloshing detection and prediction, onboard data processing and data transmission to shore, routing/speed optimisation and remote monitoring/operation.
ClassNK is going to add and update the guidelines in response to future industry needs and advances in digital technology so that the society continuously supports the industry’s efforts to promote and develop innovative technology.
The guidelines are available to download free of charge via ClassNK’s website www.classnk.com.
