Tru-Marine’s new turbocharger anomaly detection and predictive maintenance-as-a-service uses internet of things (IoT) technologies to detect anomalies and defects in advance to avoid costly breakdowns and downtime A new intelligent predictive maintenance service platform has been launched by Singapore-based Tru-Marine aimed at reducing turbocharger maintenance costs the new turbocharger anomaly detection and predictive maintenance-as-a-service (PdMaaS) digital solution is designed for turbochargers on board all oceangoing vessels PdMaaS is the result of a partnership between Tru-Marine German turbocharger maker Kompressorenbau Bannewitz (KBB) and the Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC) a research institute under the Agency for Science Technology and Research (A*STAR) in Singapore TruCare is the brainchild of veteran turbocharger maintenance This digital solution was developed through the A*STAR-Tru-Marine joint lab and successfully trialled onboard four box ships owned by one of the world’s top container shipping lines “TruCare is a disruptive digitalisation approach in managing asset maintenance on board vessels in a completely different way,” said Tru-Marine group chief executive James Loke it is our response to the urgency of decarbonisation imposed by world maritime and the Singapore Government’s raised climate ambition to net zero by or around 2050 Tru-Marine is committed to our ESG goal of carbon reduction through component lifecycle extension In addition to benefiting from the value add TruCare is an enabler for all vessel operators to join us in contributing towards the circular model for a more eco-efficient future,” added Mr Loke Commenting on the collaborative effort between A*STAR and Tru-Marine in the development of TruCare “Such public-private partnerships enable local industry stalwarts like Tru-Marine to co-create new and sustainable products and services seize new opportunities and move up the value chain.” PIL Singapore’s fleet division general manager Goh Chung Hun we constantly explore innovative solutions to improve the technical and operational reliability of our fleet This collaboration with Tru-Marine and A*STAR to develop predictive maintenance technology aims to tackle maritime industry’s pain points The ability to detect anomalies and defects in advance enables us to avoid costly breakdowns and downtime Such cutting-edge and pragmatic solutions are important for the industry as we map the path to digital transformation.” TruCare aims to transform the technical management of oceangoing vessels via an intelligent It can be fitted onto existing engines without mandatory modifications and will be available as a platform linking all end users and service providers KBB’s customers and worldwide network of service partners will be the first to benefit from the cutting-edge solution developed for turbochargers “TruCare is the most beneficial way to link highly efficient turbocharger technology with decades of turbocharger health and service knowledge,” noted KBB technical director Dr Silvio Risse “Based on innovative health analysis algorithms and a trendsetting service data management TruCare will support the vessel operator during the whole turbocharger lifecycle on a new level to keep control of maintenance needs and costs of their equipment,” added Dr Risse machine learning and digital twins for predictive maintenance of turbochargers providing improved equipment performance monitoring and technical consultancy Key operational parameters will be transmitted from ship-to-shore into a command centre for real-time data analysis using machine learning algorithms and failure models to monitor turbocharger performance predict failures and recommend maintenance windows By establishing correlations between turbocharger performance and engine parameters TruCare’s predictive ability in detecting anomalies and complex indications for breakdowns helps pre-empt potential operating issues before there is a crisis TruCare detects the possibility of a fault and recommends service based on the actual operating conditions on board TruCare differentiates on its capability in predicting the optimal time for refurbishment/overhaul of components extending the fixed maintenance schedules – moving away from traditional rigid service intervals premature turbocharger failures and associated high costs of emergency repairs Tru-Care is designed to improve the total cost of ownership and asset management Targeting also the challenges of under- and over-maintenance the digital solution puts control back into the hands of shipowners to offer peace of mind through a controlled overview of their monitored assets and crew performance TruCare will be made available as a platform and ecosystem linking all service providers managers and operators for the timely dispatch of turbocharger maintenance repair and overhaul (MRO) service and spares – anytime and anywhere in the world Transiting to this ’many-to-many’ business model all end users of KBB turbochargers will stand to benefit from the synergies among all service providers in terms of their proximity to vessel locations speed of response as well as advanced planning of service and spares trace and record the service histories and movements of turbochargers and the sub-components from manufacture and repairs to logistics and smart contracts blockchain will simplify and expedite tracking while enabling the secure sharing of information between all stakeholders in the value chain that include KBB as the original equipment manufacturer its global network of authorised service providers This addresses the current MRO-related challenges such as a lack of digital records and global database incomplete and inaccurate data sharing as well as system inconsistencies The use of blockchain will bring all stakeholders together towards improving productivity and efficiency hence significantly reducing MRO costs for both providers and end users Savings will be derived from secure data management that ensures privacy and confidentiality improved insights on service intervals and inventory levels and even automated workflows with integration to our customers’ internal systems Riviera Maritime Media will provide free technical and operational webinars in 2022.
