(Apr 2 2009) Italian tanker owner Navigazione Montanari chose Transas Mediterranean and CAIM to trial an ECDIS dual paperless solution.
Between May and September 2008, three Transas Navi-Sailor 3000 dual systems were ordered by Montanari and installed on three chemical/product tankers - ‘Valtellina’, ‘Valgardena’ and ‘Valsesia’.
Montanari has now completed the installations resulting in the vessels being able to sail in a paperless condition.
After the successful installation, Montanari decided to continue its partnership with Transas and ordered Transas ECDIS for all its newbuildings.
Transas was chosen for compatibility with the new TADS service (TRANSAS Admiralty Data – a joint venture with the UKHO), the company said.
During the installation, Transas’ technical team worked with Montanari’s engineers enabling them to have a clear understanding of the equipment. Transas also offered the engineers training.
Navigazione Montanari is involved in the crude oil, chemical and product carrier sector. Currently there are 22 vessels in operation with another seven newbuildings to be delivered in the next two years.
