The device provides immediate feedback and actionable recommendations to onboard crew, as well as insights to shorebased stakeholders via a cloud-based CM Dashboard. For the equipment in intrinsically safe areas, HAT Analytics provides us with the Ad|Vi|Se ATEX device. This includes an additional wireless triaxial Ex-certified sensor and a rugged, ATEX Zone 2, IP67-rated Windows 11 tablet (MIL-STD-810H) for enhanced safety and operational efficiency. All hardware is housed in durable, marine-grade enclosures designed to withstand vibration and corrosion, ensuring long-term performance at sea. This technology not only enhances safety and compliance in hazardous areas but also ensures consistent, high-quality monitoring across the fleet. The Measurable Benefits of Predictive Maintenance Initial surveys conducted by HAT Analytics have already yielded valuable insights. Approximately 60% of detected issues required equipment to be opened, while 40% were resolved without invasive intervention. The most common issues identified were bearing wear (22%), imbalance (22%), misalignment (22%), and mounting problems (17%). The financial impact has been substantial. In the first year alone, early fault detection delivered a return on investment (ROI) of 4 to 8 times the initial cost. Including savings from reduced delays and inspections, ROI increased significantly, underscoring the value of predictive maintenance. Long-term data further supports the effectiveness of this approach. A fouryear study covering 452 vessels and 46,696 machines revealed that only 5.5% required invasive maintenance. The remaining 94.5% were maintained through simple actions such as lubrication, bolt tightening, or visual inspections. Equipment condition improved year over year, particularly on older vessels, demonstrating the lasting benefits of consistent monitoring. Conclusion By integrating vibration monitoring into our PMS and partnering with HAT Analytics, we have taken a significant step forward in modernizing maintenance across our LNG fleet. This initiative reduces unplanned downtime and operational costs while enhancing safety, compliance, and environmental performance. It reflects our commitment to leveraging technology to achieve operational excellence and long-term asset reliability.
