Weathernews launches new service supporting ‘Greener shipping and Sea Logistics’
Weathernews Inc (WNI), the weather intelligence company, has upgraded its OSR-e (Optimum Ship Routeing) and PMS-e (Performance Monitoring Service) sea-planning tools as part of its Total Fleet Management Service concept to support customers manage their emissions goals, according to the company's release.
Both OSR-e and PSM-e update Weathernews’ existing OSR and PMS services incorporating additional Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) and CO2 environmental content in the embedded ship performance models. The strategy is to help fleet operators establish seamless emissions target management and reporting.

The plan is also to roll out promotions that provide added-value benefits to existing customers in the region.
