100 Maersk Line Boxships Going Paperless

Danish container shipping company Maersk Line has selected Transas Marine for ECDIS implementation, and will install Navi-Sailor ECDIS 4000 on more than 100 of its vessels.

According to the agreement signed between Maersk Line and Transas Marine, the existing systems will be upgraded to the latest version of the Transas Navi-Sailor ECDIS Multifunction Display with 2 ECDIS stations plus a back-up installed on each vessel, making all vessels ready for paperless operation.

The installations are planned to start in summer of 2015.

The order comes right after a contract signed between Transas Marine and Maersk Tankers for the upgrade of 71 vessels and installations on several newbuilds.
