The system is designed to enhance safety and security for offshore assets, improve efficiency in vessel logistics, and contribute toward reduced CO2 emissions and increased maritime situational awareness, according to Vissim.

Vissim added that its software platform, through input from millions of data points, provides situational awareness of the geographical area and increases understanding of maritime safety, security and efficiency.

Vissims says the processed data is presented in an intuitive and comprehensive format at QatarEnergy’s Joint Operations Centre in Doha, to support effective decision-making. The center is a collaborative initiative between the oil and gas operators in Qatar, providing real-time situational awareness and improving maritime coordination in Qatar’s waters.

Vissim is delivering the system as a subcontractor to Qatar-based Bin Omran Trading & Telecommunications, which oversees local project management and offshore installation.

The system is scheduled to be operational during first-half 2025.
