OCTOPUS can be configured to meet any need for almost any ship, whenever economy or safety is a decisive factor. OCTOPUS is the ultimate connection between the ship's office, the ship's navigation bridge, and the chart table.

CONTAINER SHIPS benefit from the resonance warning system in actual and forecast weather conditions. Optimization of trim and speed in shallow water results in reduced fuel consumption and CO2-production. RORO/CAR CARRIERS benefit from the advanced routing features and the monitoring of accelerations on the car decks. In combination with weather forecasts OCTOPUS provides the input to rational lashing plans. PIPE LAYING VESSELS benefit from the uptime and downtime indication feature based on the automatic weather and response forecast update. LNG-CARRIERS benefit from improved predictability of ETA and the optimization of offloading scenarios. OBO-CARRIERS benefit from the intelligent combined hardware/software-based hull monitoring features, estimation of speed-loss and reduced risk for slamming or water on deck. AIRCRAFT CARRIERS benefit from the short-term motion prediction features based on the measurement of the spatial incoming wave field using wave radar . CRANE VESSELS benefit from the weather window forecasts and the heading optimization feature. FPSO'S benefit from the intelligent structural monitoring capabilities using a minimum sensor setup, including a wave radar or wave buoy. Offloading scenarios can be optimized using the weather window forecasts and the simulation mode. YACHTS, CRUISE VESSELS AND FERRIES benefit from the motion optimization features to forecast, control, and improve the comfort onboard and to avoid seasickness. DREDGERS benefit from the flexibility of OCTOPUS to select wave buoys, wave radars, or weather forecasts of major suppliers as input to the OCTOPUS-system to calculate workability on- and off-location. HEAVY CARGO TRANSPORT VESSELS benefit from the combined monitoring and forecast of accelerations and roll motion, the advanced simulation mode and the response-based route optimization with weather window forecast.
