Wilhelmsen

Deploying a global LoRa 2.4GHz network

Customer Challenge

Wilhelmsen offers a maritime services portfolio to half of the world’s merchant fleet and over 2000 ports globally. Given the global importance of the maritime sector, its economic footprint and global emissions, even the smallest efficiency gains in sea routes, maintenance and cargo management will have a significant impact on reducing CO2, operational costs and delivery times.

Data is critical in finding these inefficiencies in our supply chains. Whether it’s data about the condition of onboard equipment, crew safety, reefers, in-transit vehicles, or the location of assets onshore. With the right tools, Wilhelmsen transforms this data into new information-based services that will help us make informed decisions. These services are then used to streamline internal operations, or offered to port operators and authorities, shipping lines, handlers, manufacturers, etc.
