壳牌海事推出了壳牌海事传感器服务（SMSS），这是一项船上监控服务。这项新服务如同“数字水手”，持续监控油品状况，帮助船员主动管理和维护船上设备，从而防止计划外停机。

2024年，机械损坏或故障是造成航运事故和人员伤亡的首要原因（占总数的56%）。SMSS通过让船员更清楚地了解设备状况并更好地控制船舶的抗灾能力，帮助运营商解决这一问题。

这款专为海洋环境设计的即插即用系统仅由两个组件构成：一个在线传感器和一个预配置的显示器，显示器采用简洁的交通灯界面。该系统可离线工作，全天候24小时不间断地提供设备状态读数，以便在发生诸如进水和油品劣化等问题时，立即向船员发出船上警报。

除了船上警报外，传感器数据还可以与壳牌岸上技术专家共享，以便进行更深入的分析和趋势监控。

Shell Marine launched its Shell Marine Sensor Service (SMSS), an onboard monitoring service. The new service acts as a “digital deckhand,” continuously monitoring oil condition to help crews manage and maintain equipment across a vessel proactively to prevent unplanned downtime.

Machinery damage or failure represented the number one cause of shipping incidents and casualties in 2024 (accounting for 56% of the total). SMSS helps operators address this issue by providing crews with greater visibility over equipment health and greater control over vessel resilience.

Built specifically for marine environments, the plug-and-play system consists of just two components – an inline sensor and a pre-configured display with a simple traffic-light interface. It works offline, providing readings on equipment condition 24/7 to give crews instant onboard alerts when issues like water ingress and oil degradation occur.

In addition to onboard alerts, sensor data can be shared with Shell’s shore-based technical experts for deeper analysis and trend monitoring.
