Offshore staff
SINGAPORE — Vallianz Holdings said it is accelerating the digitalization of its fleet of offshore support vessels with a comprehensive package of connectivity services from Inmarsat.
Inmarsart’s Fleet Xpress supports a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) applications for crew welfare, cybersecurity, data capture and analysis, and more.
Through Fleet Data, provided on the Fleet Edge platform, Singapore-headquartered Vallianz can collect, transfer, store and analyze IoT data to support decision-making in real time.
Also included is Fleet Connect, which offers Vallianz and its technology partners access to the vessels through dedicated bandwidth. The offshore specialist has already adopted ultralow-bandwidth maritime surveillance technology to enable live vessel monitoring from a shore-based operations center.
Vallianz also will enhance crew welfare through Fleet Hotspot, a crew connectivity tool. It allows the crew to maintain contact with loved ones ashore and access online entertainment on their own devices without interfering with business-critical bandwidth. Vallianz will be providing each of its crew members with free internet allowance every month.
