Ampelmann is the leader in the offshore access industry.
With our innovative product line and services, we have been delivering safety and efficiency to the offshore industries for more than 10 years now.
But what people don't always know is that behind all the steel and hydraulics, there is also a world of IT and software development.
Over the years, we have been using the latest and most innovative IT technologies to deliver the product and service quality that our clients expect from us.
Each Ampelmann system is equipped with high-end sensors used to measure vessel motions in real time.
Advanced software processes and transforms that signal into hydraulic movements.
Yet, all that sensor data contains a lot of valuable information that can be used for...
the real-time monitoring of alarms, predictive maintenance and product development.
One of our challenges has been combining and connecting our offshore operations to the cloud,
especially since internet connections can often let us down on the open sea.
Our IT department has been fully cloud-based for years now.
But until recently, we were still looking for the right platform to implement Internet of Things technologies.
Therefore we chose the IoT proposition from Microsoft Azure to expand our existing infrastructure.
We developed software to collect data offshore on the BoxPC and send it securely over the internet to Ampelmann's data warehouse in the cloud.
This functionality has been rolled out to collect all data across the entire fleet, and new functionalities are being added continuously.
Once the data is available in the cloud, our IT department can pick up the data, combine them with all other sources...
and our business intelligence developers can build dashboards for our business owners.
Our Data Services department is then able to prepare the big data to be further analysed and create additional models...
for fleet improvement and workability studies, amongst others.
We see that the offshore industry is developing rapidly and the importance of IT and data is growing, just like in all other industries.
Sensor-, data- and cloud technologies will help the industry to improve logistics, operations and safety of our people.
Ampelmann has shown time and again that technology and innovation are in our DNA...
and that the only way forward is to also be the digital leader in the offshore access industry.
