Solutions for the digitalization of the maritime industry

The companies of Grupo Arbulu, promoters of the digitization of the maritime industry

Digitization is becoming increasingly important in the maritime sector. The changes are gradually being introduced in the different vessels, gradually turning them into efficient, environmentally friendly, intelligent, autonomous and digitally safe vessels. The new vessel of the digital age will be a vessel with all kinds of marine electronics technology solutions: a connected, digital and autonomous vessel. READ MORE

Autonomous shipping, leading the digitization of the shipping industry

In the maritime shipping industry, autonomous shipping vessels are gaining prominence. Shipping vessels will in the future go from being intelligent to autonomous through the inclusion of sensors, robotics and remote control. As a result of the absence of human participation on board, automation could reduce labor costs by 90% and result in a 6% reduction in fuel and a 5% reduction in construction, leading to higher revenue due to the expansion of the cargo space. In addition, autonomous vessels will optimize maintenance activities and maximize fuel use, reducing the carbon footprint and improving sustainability. Grupo Arbulu companies are committed to the digitization of the shipping industry and have extensive experience and knowledge of marine electronics for the implementation of all kinds of new technologies on board.

Efficient and sustainable fishing industry thanks to digitization

In the fishing industry, digitization is more focused on improving fishing efficiency and sustainability. New technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, unmanned autonomous vehicles, etc. help to improve the efficiency of fishing operations and therefore to achieve a much more sustainable fishing. The use of tools such as satellite buoys with echosounder for tuna fishing or the use of oceanographic services allow much better planning of fishing operations and establish optimal routes that help reduce fuel consumption and therefore the carbon footprint in the ocean.

All of this connected to the vessel thanks to satellite communication solutions that allow the transfer and reception of data in real time from anywhere in the world. In addition, the use of autonomous unmanned vehicles, both surface (ASV), underwater (AUV) and aerial (UAV) in fishing operations will also enable sustainable fishing as it will allow the collection of data on oceanographic conditions and the identification of the best fishing areas in advance, avoiding wasting resources and fuel.
