Insights that enable 21st century LNG operations Digitalization is creating new opportunities for cost savings and efficiency improvements in the shipping industry. To fully harness the benefits of digitalization, you need a partner who understands the challenges you face as well as the unique LNG carrier environment. Variables like boil off, dual or tri-fuel diesel-electric propulsion and the operation of reliquefaction plants or gas combustion units are critical not just for efficiency, but also for safety. BRING TRANSPARENCY TO YOUR LNG CARRIER OPERATIONS The complex environment that LNG carriers operate in creates great opportunities for improving efficiency. Eniram integrates data from crew operations, vessel performance, and the LNG cargo on board. We enrich this data with advanced modeling techniques to produce a holistic, near realtime view of what is happening on board your vessel. This unprecedented level of transparency enables you to operate the vessel more cost efficiently, reduce transportation costs and take full advantage of your assets. It also helps build stronger relationships with your stakeholders and partners. Eniram Insight Factory is our unique technology platform that powers all of our services. GAIN CONTROL OVER BOIL-OFF Managing how the boil-off gas is utilized onboard (engines / boilers, gas combustion unit / steam dump or reliquefaction) can lead to significant optimization opportunities. Eniram can help you achieve savings by providing valuable insights into the factors affecting the boil-off gas generation (sailing conditions, routes, vessel motions, cargo tank pressures) as well as the performance of the cargo containment system. IMPROVE FUEL EFFICIENCY WITH RIGHT ENGINE AND FUEL COMBINATIONS For vessels with dual / tri-fuel electric propulsion, the combination of fuel and load / number of engines offers additional optimization opportunities. Eniram solutions give real-time recommendations taking into account current or anticipated power demand, different fuel modes, gas management strategy or operational restrictions. We are very pleased with the early results. However we see this as just the beginning. We can achieve significant further savings through utilizing the additional data and analysis provided by the Eniram solution. Leo Huisman, President of Norgas Carriers Pte Ltd ENIRAM INSIGHT FACTORY WE COLLECT DATA Eniram Insight Factory utilizes data collected from the vessels bridge, automation systems, and onboard sensors. We also integrate third-party information like weather forecasts. DATA INSIGHT ACTIONS

Eniram services for LNG CARRIERS We offer a range of services to help you optimize operations and asset management to improve efficiency and save fuel. Asset management Eniram s solutions for asset management enable maintenance cost reduction, maximized asset reliability and uptime, as well as improved asset efficiency. ENIRAM GAS MANAGEMENT REPORTS ENIRAM HULL AND PROPELLER PERFORMANCE We can analyze how the boil-off gas is utilized on board (engines /boilers, gas combustion unit / steam dump and reliquefaction) and how this is affected by operational or external factors (e.g. speed, vessel motions, environmental conditions). This helps monitoring the implementation of a gas management strategy and identifying optimization opportunities. Our Hull and Propeller Performance solution shows the impact of hull fouling on propulsion power performance in real time and in actual dollars and tons of fuel. This insight helps you make timely hull cleanings, fine-tune your hull coating strategy and evaluate the impact of hydrodynamic investments. Operations optimization Eniram s solutions for operations optimization enable improved safety, energy efficiency and transparency across operations. ENIRAM ENGINE FOR LNG Eniram Engine for LNG provides guidance for crews on TFDE and DFDE carriers to help them use their engines in the most efficient way possible. Our solution takes into account actual engine performance to suggest optimal engine and fuel combinations for the prevailing conditions and operational restrictions. ENIRAM SPEED Eniram Speed recommends the optimal RPM to reach port just-in-time at the lowest cost. Analysis is based on a unique model of your vessel s hydrodynamic characteristics, combined with real-time vessel information and third-party weather forecasts. ENIRAM SPEED FUEL PERFORMANCE Track your vessel s true speed-fuel performance based on continuously measured data. Distinguish the impact of different weather conditions and different fuels on the performance curve. Compare performance to a reference, such as sea trials. The highly accurate Eniram Virtual STW ensures vessel performance is tracked with increased precision. ENIRAM VIRTUAL STW Accurate STW (Speed Though Water) data is the prerequisite for any decisions related to evaluating vessels performance or speed related onboard operations. ENIRAM TRIM Optimizing a vessel s trim cuts fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions. But unlike static trim charts, Eniram Trim allows you to respond immediately to changing conditions and maintain optimum trim in real time. ENIRAM INSIGHT FACTORY YOU TAKE ACTION With Eniram, you get real-time decision-making support. Teams can improve LNG carrier operations and vessel asset management while making sure valuable cargo is not wasted. DATA INSIGHT ACTIONS
