Through cutting-edge data technology, you will get immediate and unprecedented insight into your towage businesses in any port in the world, including your own.
Powerful data-driven insights to optimize towage businesses
Get access to our unique technology for assessing tug movements in ports. It can give you unprecedented insights into any tug operation in the world that you cannot get anywhere else.
Since we use predominantly AIS data to power our insights there is no requirement to install any hardware or data collection applications on board tugs. No investment or CAPEX required
We have an apt understanding of AIS data and data analytics technology, powered by strong experience in the maritime sector.
There is no upfront investment cost for achieving value from our products, so we can also offer a very flexible and easy contracting set-up, not requiring long-term commitments.
We offer both stand-alone data powered insights and can also help you with the implementation and value generation

Case study Client
A large regional harbor and terminal towage operator was looking for a method to save fuel without investing in technology upgrades. They had already installed fuel consumption meters on board a substantial amount of their tugs and were monitoring the fuel consumption closely. Yet they could not see the reductions they were hoping to achieve.
Reporting on the sailing speeds of their fleet while mobilizing and demobilizing showed that there was significant potential to reduce fuel consumption by reducing speeds. While they knew that for many of their tugs the optimal speed was below 8 knots, the speed reports LionRock Maritime provided showed that there was excessive speeding over 8 knots, even up to 60% of all light sailing.
Despite this finding, the client was hesitant to implement LionRock’s “Waste Free Shipping” solution. How could simple performance feedback on speeding add any value in the drive to lower fuel use?
We hence started small with the implementation in one of their operations. It involved a water system that incorporated 3 ports where our client has 6 tugs in operation. The baseline speed measurement showed that speeding in excess of 8 knots was done around 60% of all free sailing time. The implementation involved weekly speed performance reporting on a captain level. Within 2 months, speeding went down from 60% on average to less than 20%. Representing an annual saving of about EUR 250.000,-
Following this success, the client chose to implement LionRock’s Waste Free Shipping solution in 6 more ports.
