AFE Fuel Economiser
is a real-time data monitoring and an accurate reporting tool
Optimise your fuel consumption with AFE
With AFE Fuel Economiser, shipowners and operators can proactively analyse and identify where fuel consumption and emissions can be reduced. Delivering savings of between up to 20%.
The AFE monitors and measures the entire fuel consumption of vessels across a whole fleet, collecting data from all fuel and power-related systems on board, whether a vessel is in operation or not. This makes data collection easy for accurate reporting purposes in line with regulations such as the IMO’s Carbon Intensity Indicator, and, critically, it also highlights opportunities to reduce fuel consumption such as optimising operations by analysing fuel profiles.
The system utilises the fuel supply system sensors and other data that is available from the ship’s systems. It enables cloud-based utilisation of the data available from the fuel supply system.
Actionable data for emissions reporting
A ship’s fuel oil consumption includes but is not limited to the consumption of each fuel oil type, regardless of if the vessel is under way or not. Typical consumers to be monitored are main engines, auxiliary engines, gas turbines, boilers and inert gas generator.
AFE collects data such as used fuel oil type, consumption and viscosity. It monitors the fuel change over time and viscosity and fuel temperature behaviour. As to fuel system components, it monitors the fuel oil filter flushing, fuel pump runtimes and fuel oil cooling and heating valve positions. Shaft power meter and engine data monitoring are available as options.
Auramarine AFE can support your operations and operational cost awareness by reporting the fuel consumption per nautical mile and distance travelled. Constant engine health monitoring helps to prevent disturbances and downtime. Reporting is possible to bridge, control room and to shore via a signal.
As part of your system, AFE Auramarine Fuel Economiser supports and complements your full CII calculation and realtime energy efficiency indication, depending on your system setup. Start your emissions reporting easily with AFE. With it, you can easily meet reporting regulations and create EU-MRV, IMO-DCS and CII reporting.
