ABB Ability™ 24/7 Care marine technical support

Le Commandant Charcot, which recently became the first exploration cruise ship to reach the geographic North Pole, has signed up for ABB MarineCare services to ensure safe and sustainable operations. 

Extending its global reach and service capabilities, ABB Marine & Ports is ramping its presence with local divisions in Turkey and Saudi Arabia.

As a frontrunner in electric, digital and connected solutions for shipping, ABB’s latest fleet support and troubleshooting advance sees engineers ‘training’ machine-learning algorithms to deliver faster, more reliable re-mote services to customers.

ABB has signed a contract to support icebreaking LNG carrier Christophe de Margerie with remote diagnostics services for increased safety and performance as the vessel completed the transit of the Northern Sea Route, bound for China with Yamal LNG cargo two months earlier than usual.

Covering the world with the ABB Ability™  Collaborative Operations Centers is now a reality. Regardless of time or location our team of experts is proactively monitoring and ready to support in an instant!

In today’s complex, hyper-connected and increasingly globalized world, engineers, operations managers, and successful business leaders need accurate, real-time access to operational data to support better decision making.

The increase in demand for smart asset management services during the first half of 2020 is creating momentum for remote diagnostic services to support systems at sea.

In a milestone for the marine industry, ABB’s solutions on board a large passenger ship have been awarded cybersecurity verification from classification society DNV GL.

Major advances in icebreaker technology over the last 25 years come together in the ‘Universal Polar Icebreaker’, a concept that goes a major step beyond what traditional designs can achieve while using thoroughly proven marine systems technology, including propulsion.

The newly inaugurated center will support ABB’s ship power, propulsion and automation technologies and expand service capabilities for ice-going vessels.

ABB has secured the order covering power, automation, propulsion and digital systems for the second icegoing cruise ship to be built for Lindblad Expeditions by Ulstein.
