Risk management firm DNV GL has announced an agreement with StormGeo to consolidate the two companies’ fleet performance solutions under one banner.
According to a statement, DNV GL’s ECO Insight and Navigator Insight solutions will now be combined with FleetDSS and ship reporting platforms from StormGeo, creating a new industry leader in fleet performance management.
The complete performance portfolio offered by the partners will include route advisory, navigation and planning, and fleet performance management services.
In addition to this, a combined fleet of more than 12,000 vessels will receive a daily service from StormGeo in route advisory, weather intelligence, navigation and planning or fleet performance.

The consolidation also creates the largest vessel performance data set and developer team in shipping, providing customers with analytics to enhance operational decision-making.
DNV GL will retain a strong connection to the new solution through its 26.4% share in StormGeo, as well as continuing technical support to ECO Insight customers.
Users will also be able to share data through DNV GL’s open industry platform Veracity.
