EuroAfrica, a key player in maritime shipping, has announced that it will deploy Syroco Live on their multipurpose vessel M/V ESL Australia. The Syroco system will provide advanced performance routing and decision support as the ship sails into challenging maritime environments between Europe and the Southern Hemisphere.
Syroco Live is a real-time voyage optimisation platform that combines live operational data, ship-specific digital twins, and evolving weather and oceanic forecasts to guide routing and speed decisions. On board the ESL Australia, the system will help the crew navigate weather conditions safely while reducing fuel consumption and emissions throughout the voyage.
“Regardless of their destination, sea voyages always place high demands on the vessel and crew,” said Marcin Goldman, Shipping Director of EuroAfrica. “Deploying Syroco Live gives us the confidence to face unpredictable weather and sea states while optimising the voyage for both safety and efficiency. We are confident that the solution will deliver high value and will become indispensable for our crews and fleet management team.”
Syroco Live is based on a digital twin of the ship and continuously ingests real-time weather and vessel data to generate updated routing recommendations that account for energy use, charter economics, and safety of navigation.
“The deployment of Syroco Live on ESL Australia highlights the system’s versatility and robustness,” said Alex Caizergues, CEO and co-founder of Syroco. “We are proud to support EuroAfrica’s commitment to sustainability and safety.”
The integration of Syroco Live on the ESL Australia underscores EuroAfrica’s broader commitment to digital transformation and decarbonisation.
