Specialist ship owner, operator and manager GC Rieber has selected the vessel navigation solution by Navtor for its complete fleet.

Navtor, a company that focused on e-navigation technology and services, will now install products throughout GC Rieber’s portfolio of seismic and of[ds_preview]fshore ships, enhancing overall fleet efficiency, safety and cost control.

The agreement is far reaching in scope. It covers the delivery of all digital and paper charts and publications, provided on a Pay As You Sail (PAYS) basis, alongside products and services including weather and route optimisation services, navigational management solution NavTracker, and the installation of NavBox units. These, one of Navtor’s latest innovations, connect with ECDIS and automatically download the latest navigational data without navigators having to check for updates.

GC Rieber operates a fleet of nine vessels – including some of the industry’s most advanced seismic ships – with installation of all Navtor’s products and services expected by the end of 2016.
Navtor, which has opened new offices in Japan and Singapore over the course of the last year, launched its ENC service to the market in 2012.
