Fleet Performance Monitoring: We are pleased to announce a new strategic partnership between Chris-Marine and NAVTOR, aimed at transforming how shipping companies collect, share, and act on operational data.
This collaboration marks a significant step forward in supporting shipping companies with data-driven decision-making and sustainable operations. Chris-Marine’s Trust-Ocean data collection system is now fully integrated into NAVTOR’s NavBox and NavReporting platforms. This connection empowers vessel operators to improve efficiency, reduce manual workloads, and ensure more reliable ship performance monitoring.
About NAVTOR
Founded in Norway in 2011, NAVTOR has become a trusted partner to the maritime industry, delivering innovative e-Navigation and vessel performance solutions to over 60 countries. By combining advanced technology with in-depth maritime expertise, NAVTOR simplifies tasks, improves efficiency, and supports safer, more sustainable operations.
A New Era of Fleet Performance Monitoring
Through this integration, ship operators can now benefit from streamlined vessel data solutions that reduce manual reporting and improve the visibility of ship performance across entire fleets.
“We share the same vision of helping shipping companies enhance efficiency, improve performance, and make safe, sustainable decisions through smarter data use, so it’s a perfect match,” says Leif Nydal Abildgaard, CCO at Chris-Marine.
NAVTOR’s NavBox automatically collects, encrypts, and distributes data from onboard systems. With Trust-Ocean fully integrated, this includes high-resolution engine performance data captured by Chris-Marine’s sensors and monitoring devices. This gives shore-based teams real-time insights to plan maintenance, optimise performance, reduce fuel consumption, and improve overall vessel performance.
Why This Matters for Vessel Operators
With the integration of Trust-Ocean, shipping companies can:
- Automatically capture and share real-time vessel data across systems
- Reduce manual reporting and the risk of errors (for instance noon reporting)
- Improve visibility for onshore teams and verifiers
- Streamline noon reporting and simplify regulatory compliance
- Make data-driven decisions to boost efficiency and sustainability
NAVTOR’s NavReporting is a widely adopted automated noon reporting tool, while NavBox enables secure, high-frequency data transfers to shore. Together with Chris-Marine’s hardware, this creates a seamless workflow from ship to shore, paving the way for more sustainable ship operations.
“Chris-Marine’s precision tools and advanced monitoring technology make data capture simple and accurate,” says Jacob Clausen, Director of Performance at NAVTOR. “Integrating Trust-Ocean will unlock next-level benefits for crews and onshore teams alike.”
