“Environmental compliance is just one component in an increasingly complex balancing act for the marine shipping industry,” said Kristofer Maanum, Senior Product Leader at Bearing AI.

“When making adjustments to address emissions, modern shipping companies need to be able to see the impact on their operations, and vice versa – and they need to do it in real-time across millions of variables. This level of scenario simulation is only possible with AI,” Maanum claimed.
