Tank monitoring & delivery operation efficiency solution

A widespread problem existed where air bubbles were introduced into the fuel during refueling—particularly around Singapore—to artificially inflate the volume and bill the customer for more fuel than was actually supplied.

Ship Fuel Tank

・Daily checks at high locations were a routine occurrence, raising safety concerns. ・Each check required movement, increasing workload and time consumption. ・On the shipyard side, there was room for improvement in equipment handling and ease of installation.

Ship Main Engine LO Sump Tank

・Sounding operations required a certain amount of time and effort, and there was demand for improved work efficiency. ・Routine checks placed a burden on on-site personnel. ・Real-time monitoring and remote observation were difficult to achieve.

Turbine Shaft Lubricating Oil Tank for Power Plant

・Alarm signal stability was a concern, and reliable status monitoring was required. ・False signals were affecting facility operations and increasing the need for verification work. ・A monitoring system that could be operated with confidence was needed.

Fresh Water Tank and Ballast Tank

・Checks at high locations were required, raising safety concerns. ・Each liquid level check required movement, placing a significant burden on workers. ・Procuring and installing long scale plates was time-consuming.

Marine Fuel Tank

Fuel and Ballast Tank for Offshore Support Vessel

・Overseas-made sensors required long procurement times, making delivery schedules difficult to predict. ・Specification confirmation and various adjustments were time-consuming, creating an operational burden. ・For narrow tanks with complex shapes, there was room for improvement in installation and maintainability.

Marine Fuel Tank

・During fuel loading, cappuccino-like foam sometimes formed on the liquid surface. ・Conventional portable sounding measured up to the foam layer, causing a discrepancy with the actual liquid surface. ・Foam adhering to the tape made accurate reading difficult. ・Accumulated measurement errors led to significant annual losses.

Ship Ballast Tank

・Discerning the liquid surface required workarounds, making measurement time-consuming. ・Tracking discharge status and performing calculations was labor-intensive, placing a burden on workers. ・Discharge speed required careful adjustment, and stable operation was a constant requirement.
