Following a competitive tender, Chevron Shipping Company LLC (CSC) has selected smart shipping solutions from C-MAP, a provider of commercial marine charting and cloud-based software solutions for fleet management and route optimization.
CSC will deploy C-MAP’s onboard platform that employs advanced algorithms and customized ship performance models to deliver voyage optimization.

C-MAP’s Commercial Services team will provide shore-based routing and voyage optimization services, as well as technical support and training.
In addition, ADMIRALTY AVCS Electronic Navigation Charts and Digital Publications, C-MAP Pro+ charts, and C-MAP UpdateWizard offer worldwide chart coverage.
