Our work
Shell Shipping & Maritime Technologies enables the Shell Trading and Supply organisation to deliver safely on its contracts; supporting many of Shell鈥檚 success stories in liquefied natural gas, in marine elements of floating production and storage systems, and in delivering a decarbonized future for global shipping.
Operational optimisation technologies 鈥� JAWS
The Just Add Water System (JAWS) uses real time data to inform a vessel of the optimum draft, trim and speed for a particular voyage, achieving emissions reductions of up to 5%. Shell partnered with DNV and Kongsberg Maritime to deploy the technology to the market.
Find out how three graduates from Shell Shipping and Maritime Technologies developed this impressive system, and how Shell and Kongsberg trialed it on actual LNG carriers.
Safety ambition technologies 鈥� Collision detection
Shell partnered with Orca AI to install and trial an Artificial Intelligence (AI) camera system to provide advanced warning of a vessel collision or maritime incident well before crew members would be able to see the risk. Learn how this camera is keeping crews safe by giving them advanced alert of other vessels and floating objects.
Fuel transition technologies - Methane abatement
Natural gas can reduce the emissions of shipping by upto 23% when used as a marine fuel. There is however a concern across the shipping industry of the environmental impact of Methane Slip. Methane Slip is a term used to describe the release of unburnt natural gas in a ship's engine after combustion. Shell is a partner in the GREEN RAY project, which aims to develop three innovative technologies to minimise or eliminate methane slip.
