Expected themes
Should Fleet MPDS be always on? Improving ship and shore quality of reactivity - obstacles to greater utilisation of Fleet MPDS always on - avoiding large bills - what initiatives are the LESOs making to help shipping companies control their MPDS costs?
Assessment of the VSAT options - how does a shipping company choose between the $1,995 per month service from Broadband Maritime or the $4,800 service from Telenor, both for global VSAT including equipment lease?
How can shipping companies justify the costs of VSAT - or are they better off making better value from their Inmarsat services
Connexion by Boeing - service overview
Managing shipboard virus updates - how can it be performed effectively?
Ship condition based monitoring and information technology - how much value can it add
Ship routing tools - how much can they help reduce fuel costs, and why are they not used more widely? Is it because the charterer pays for the fuel and the shipowner implements the system? Or is it because they cannot practically lead to large reductions in fuel costs?
Can software help reduce demurrage costs (delays at port) and how can this work
Navigating legally on electronic charts - what is possible? Experiences to date with electronic charts, how easy it to obtain and use ENCs, problems, how much their shipping company customers can currently use ENCs to navigate without needing paper charts - how they can help them make the services work - how they are overcoming problems.
