SHIP AUTOMATION AND MONITORING FROM THE ENGINE MANUFACTURER'S POINT OF VIEW
The diesel engine manufacturer is probably the most knowledgeable of the organizations involved with the majority of inputs required to define the propulsion control and monitoring systems in the automation of a ship. Experience has demonstrated that this approach results in a more orderly procurement, reduction of errors or corrections, and smoother implementation of the ship automation systems in the end product. This paper discusses how one engine manufacturer has set up a system for the definition, design, specification, procurement, installation and check out of the propulsion control and monitoring systems, along with the machinery plant, in support of his main product - the diesel engine.
