Nautical Control Solutions will use the Iridium Satellite network to support its FuelTrax fuel monitoring system. The FuelTrax system features fuel flow sensors and engine room electronics to collect real-time data on fuel consumption speed and heading. The information is transmitted to a shore-based service called FuelNet for permanent storage and on-demand viewing. The service also features a graphical mapping system that shows fuel consumption and fuel events along the vessel's route. FuelTrax provides a highly accurate record of fuel consumption, transfer and loading. |
