Data solutions for the shipping industry

A fleet of marine engines generates an overwhelming amount of data. MAN Data+ enables you to find the value in this sea of data – helping you to manage your ships and cargo more efficiently, ensuring vessel availability, and reducing emissions and costs. Thanks to our deep domain knowledge of the engines, we can ensure your equipment data is available, scalable and, most importantly, actionable. 

MAN Data+ offers a secure API gateway for clients to access an extensive repository of structured asset data. Seamlessly integrating with existing Business Intelligence (BI) tools, this platform enables sophisticated data analysis and optimization strategies.

Clients can analyze performance trends and monitor assets in real-time, gaining enhanced operational insights.

Based on MAN CEON, the cloud-based platform behind our digital portfolio, MAN Data+ securely and intelligently collects and integrates engine data in a consumable and comprehensive way. It is available for both newbuilds and as a retrofit on MAN two-stroke.

Artificial intelligence, big data, and machine learning all hold a lot of promise for shipping but need to be properly networked with the existing vessels, machinery, and infrastructure of the shipping industry. That is where MAN Data+, with its in-depth integration with MAN machinery, offers you a direct advantage. With APIs, you can seamlessly merge your MAN engine data with other platforms and systems. We collect the data from the sensors on the MAN equipment and refine it with our algorithms it to make it useful. You can use it with your own IT systems.

 

The benefits of MAN Data+ in ship performance and fleet management

MAN Data+ enables secure data transmission by satellite communication providers, plus data collection, storage, easy integration with APIs, and a functional and scalable data structure. In turn, all this functionality allows you to optimize fleet performance and efficiency, lowers operational costs, reduces onboard labor, and raises the quality of the performance and monthly reports on the engine.

Introducing MAN Multi Fluid Monitor

MAN Energy Solutions' intelligent system for continuous industrial oil-monitoring evolves and receives new name

MAN Energy Solutions has taken another step forward in industrial innovation and introduced a new version of MAN Fluid Monitor (MFM), its continuous engine-oil-monitoring tool originally launched in 2020.

In doing so, the company has extended the application of the advanced oil-monitoring technology to two-stroke engines (bearing-lubrication circuit) – a key sector for the merchant marine industry.

To mark this major evolution, the product has changed its name to MAN Multi Fluid Monitor, establishing itself as a multi-brand (OEM) solution capable of monitoring engines of different generations, configurations and fuels. Fleet managers can now monitor the health of engines across their entire fleet using the same tool and approach.

The new monitor retains all the features of its predecessor with the real-time, continuous monitoring of engine-oil condition, enabling the immediate detection of any irregularities and the prevention of failures before they affect production. When an anomaly is detected at an early stage of initiation – well before conventional oil-mist systems can detect it – the system generates an alert for the operator, accompanied by technical recommendations to prevent any further degradation that might lead to major damage and unplanned plant shutdowns.

Arnauld Filancia, President of MAN Energy Solutions France, said: “Oil contamination is a reflection of deteriorating engine health. The MAN Multi Fluid Monitor thus moves from being a specialised solution for four-stroke engines to one that can be applied globally, including to two-stroke engines and other industrial equipment. The system has already been installed on several hundred engines of different brands worldwide and is proving its worth.”

Additionally, a smartphone app is currently being tested by customers and will be available in the near future. This game-changing tool is designed to deliver expert technical recommendations, and comprehensive maintenance manuals—all accessible anytime, anywhere, even offline.

MAN Energy Solutions describes the MAN Multi Fluid Monitor as an excellent example of how it tries to anticipate the needs of an ever-changing market. This solution is fully in line with Industry 4.0, transforming reactive maintenance towards increasingly predictive maintenance and thus optimising the management of industrial equipment.
