"We are very pleased to have signed a contract to deliver the Vessel Insight infrastructure to Güngen", says Andreas Jagtøyen, Executive Vice President, KDI. "Güngen is a well-reputed shipping company with high ambitions to digitalise its fleet to the highest level and is thereby a forerunner in terms of standardising the digitalisation process on vessels.

Selim Güngen, C.O.O. of Güngen, says "The multitude of sensors onboard our ships are producing a massive amount of valuable data. So far, despite enjoying the best satellite communication contracts, which the market has to offer, we have only really been able to access this data by logging into our ships."
We very much look forward to setting yet another milestone in our Digitalization Process, together with Kongsberg"
"This relatively slow and inefficient process obstructed our predictive maintenance and data analysis endeavors. We, therefore, reached out to Kongsberg, the makers of our ships’ automation system, to find a solution for an effortless data stream, accessible from anywhere/anytime within a user-friendly interface. We very much look forward to setting yet another milestone in our Digitalization Process, together with Kongsberg."
