GTT, through its subsidiary Marorka, announces the signature of a contract with Antarctica21, the world’s leading Antarctic fly and cruise expedition operator, to equip its modern expedition vessel Magellan Explorer with GTT Digital smart shipping solutions.

This contract includes the deployment of sensors, automatic data collection systems and intelligent software to manage and optimize the energy and environmental performance of the vessel.

Mr. Anouar Kiassi, Vice-president of Digital & Information, declared: “We are honoured by the trust that Antarctica21 places in us to accompany them on their journey towards digitalisation and effective decarbonisation. As major milestones in emissions monitoring and reduction are upon us, we are delighted to work hand-in-hand with a shipowner committed to operational and environmental excellence.”

Mr. Jaime Vasquez, President of Antartica21, declared: “We are delighted to be working with GTT. The deployment of this new technology on board Magellan Explorer will allow us to benchmark our energy consumption, thereby assisting us in reducing emissions.”
