What Albis Marine Performance does

Albis Marine Performance GmbH is a Hamburg-based private company that provides hardware, software, and data analytics services for vessel performance monitoring in the commercial shipping sector. The company builds high-frequency marine data acquisition systems — including main engine consumption monitoring, auxiliary and boiler monitoring, and torque data collection — installed directly on vessels and integrated with its software platform. Its product portfolio comprises three vertical-specific systems: V-PER (Vessel Performance Manager) for cargo vessels, CTS (Crew Transfer Support System) for offshore wind crew transfer vessels, and FOS (Ferry Operation Support System) for fixed-route ferry operators. These solutions cover weather routing, charter warranty monitoring, real-time fleet tracking, anomaly/mode detection, and on-demand reporting. Customer access is enabled through secure web interfaces including Fleet Online and the CTS Operation Planner.

The underlying technology combines high-frequency structured data acquisition with AI-assisted analytics layered against over 15 years of proprietary maritime performance data. The company's positioning, formalized in the 2024 Hybrid Intelligence Service, explicitly couples AI analytical power with human maritime expertise (data analysts, meteorologists, engineers, software engineers, and service technicians), acknowledging both the value and the input-quality dependencies of AI in maritime settings. Recent product strategy has pivoted around IMO EEXI and CII binding CO2 reduction regulations and the offshore wind buildout, targeting adjacent growth verticals.

Albis generates revenue through a mix of hardware sales and installation engineering services (electrical planning, piping plans, full system installation), recurring SaaS subscriptions to the V-PER/CTS/FOS platforms, and ongoing consulting/analysis engagements including on-demand reports and quarterly charter warranty analyses. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales to shipping executives and fleet managers, supported by 24/7 customer technical support and a 24/7 hotline. Customer evidence is thin but includes Ardmore Shipping for tanker fleet performance monitoring, while scale signals cite more than 130 installed systems and 500+ integrated fuel meters with documented customer fuel cost savings exceeding €45 million.

Core offering

Albis Marine Performance sells and operates hardware-and-software vessel performance monitoring solutions (V-PER, CTS, FOS) that acquire high-frequency fuel and operational data from cargo vessels, crew transfer vessels, and ferries. The company combines these systems with the ALBIS Hybrid Intelligence Service — a mix of AI analytics and human maritime expertise — plus engineering installation and consulting services, to optimize ship operations, cut fuel consumption and emissions, and meet EEXI/CII compliance requirements.

Product overview

Albis Marine Performance is a maritime performance monitoring and consulting company offering a unified platform of specialized solutions. The core product V-PER (Vessel Performance Manager) serves as the main digitalization and optimization toolbox for cargo vessels, while CTS (Crew Transfer Support System) addresses offshore wind crew transfer vessel operations and FOS (Ferry Operation Support System) handles ferry operations on fixed routes. All three solutions are supported by the ALBIS Hybrid Intelligence Service, which combines AI capabilities with human expertise for enhanced performance analysis and decarbonization support. The portfolio spans from single measurement solutions like main engine consumption monitoring to complete performance management systems including auxiliary and boiler monitoring as well as torque data collection.
