Royal Norwegian Navy Orders Advanced Control and Monitoring Systems
In close co-operation with Kongsberg Maritime, Data Process Automasjon has secured an order for the delivery of a new platform management system to the Royal Norwegian Navy.
The contract is worth US$ 3.4 Million and includes systems for eight highly advanced 'Oksnøy' and 'Alta' class Mine Counter Measure Vessels (MCMVs).
The delivery is based on the Kongsberg Maritime DataChief C20 automation system and contains new systems for management of all platform systems on board, including propulsion, water jets and power generation.
Included in the contract is a data network with unique (adapted) workstations and software for each vessel. The network will be connected to, and collect data from all automation systems on board. In this way all existing systems will be integrated with the new control system. Thus all relevant information will be presented to the operators in the control room and on the bridge, enabling optimal operation of the vessel at all times.
