Bahri Data inked a contract with classification society DNV GL to co-develop and jointly leverage their big data capabilities for safety, quality and compliance innovation, Bahri said in a statement Monday.
Founded in 2015, Bahri Data, which is one of the six business units within Saudi Arabian transportation and logistics company Bahri, provides collaboration and data-driven insights to stakeholders of the maritime, oil and gas, and other related industries.
Data scientists from Bahri Data and DNV GL are working on a prototype solution to make safety and quality decisions more insightful and easier to perform from the perspective of an owner, vessel operator, charterer, port authority operator, and a regulator, Bahri explained. An early prototype targeting owners/operators and charters in a first instance will be introduced in Dubai on Nov. 8.
“As part of the partnership, data scientists from Bahri Data and Veracity, DNV GL’s dedicated industry data platform, will lead efforts to drive innovative industry-wide initiatives to bolster safety, security, quality, and compliance frameworks in the global fleet,” Bahri said. “The solution will help charterers, regulators, and port authorities see key parameters of a vessel’s safety and quality status and historical background, thus allowing all stakeholders to work together to improve safety and quality goals.”
