TEDEPAD

TEDEPAD® is the first system specially designed to treat guts that are gen- erated when processing fish on board fishing vessels, with the aim of completely exterminate their parasites; Especially the Anisákidos, obtaining that those viscera can be returned to the sea without adversely affecting the marine ecosystems. In this way it contributes to the reduction of the concentration of these parasites in the fishing grounds where our fleet operates.

TELESPAZIO FRANCE

Several problems threaten marine ecosystems such as anthropogenic activities (including overexploitation, overfishing, mass tourism, rising sea traffic, eutrophication, pollution) and the effects of global impacts (namely ocean acidification and climate change). For Marine-EO, the consortium led by Telespazio France, and composed of e-Geos, Telespazio, SUEZ and CMCC demonstrated strong experience in delivering robust innovative EO solutions. They are designed to tackle three environmental issues: 1. The monitoring of the marine environmental status in hot spots (Gulfs, Marine Protected Areas). 2. The detection of fish farms threats. 3. The detection of vessels and icebergs in Arctic areas for a better maritime awareness.

Teqplay BV

Teqplay has developed a digital twin of the port and port operations. The digital twin automatically collects public information required for safe and efficient operations and translates this information in relevant business events. This technology provides the basis for optimizing port call operations for all of the involved stakeholders. A port call (the overall process of vessels entering and departing from the port) involves up to 27 stakeholders. In essence does the digital twin provide a real-time shared point of truth (shared awareness) that enables predictable, faster and cheaper port call operations and creates the basis for collaboration.

TfI Marine

TfI has developed Sea springs that maximum mooring loads by upwards of 70%, this, in turn, delivers significant cost reductions in the mooring system. Reductions in capex by ~ 50% and Opex by ~20% The target markets are Aquaculture, Floating wind and OIl and Gas These reductions are key for floating wind platforms. With ~60% of the offshore wind resource in depths & 50m, beyond the reach of the fixed bottom, they will become a key enabler to this emerging sector, the floating offshore wind industry.

TOWT - TransOceanic Wind Transport

Our mission, since 2011, is to act to decarbonize maritime transport by using the power of the wind for a more sober, less dependent on hydrocarbons, and more transparent mode of transport. Sailing, as the main propulsion, is a lever for economic development in trade and allows us to look for a real energy transition to meet the climate and energy challenge. Sailing-cargo ships offer a modern, cost-effective, reliable and optimized logistics solution based on the innovative use of proven technologies. They are naturally a cost-effective and competitive offer. The first generation, the Phenix class, with a capacity of 1000 tons, will be launched in 2024 (two ships). 6 sister-ships will arrive in 2027/2028.
