Maritime AI Digest — 20 September 2026

Weekly roundup: Shipping Technology gives its inland track pilot control of the engine as well as the rudder, on the back of 200 vessels and a 5% fuel saving that a Dutch government agency checked in the field, while the new 10% claim is still the vendor's own; Galileo produces the first civil satellite position protected against spoofing in both its data and its signal, with the service due in 2027 and free worldwide; Yilport reports 21% more crane moves per hour at Gebze after three months of Kaleris optimisation with dispatchers still in charge; India's JNPA awards a $9.7m AI digital twin contract only after a live proof of concept on its own port; TS Cyanergy calls an ABS approval a landmark validation when the certificate itself says non-essential; China Merchants launches a vessel operating system from chips to applications; and Anthropic names its first outside AI inspector and pays for it itself, which is the question shipping has lived with since the first class society sent the owner an invoice

Maritime AI Digest — 13 September 2026

Weekly roundup: three separate bodies certified maritime AI software in six days and every one of them stopped short of the number that matters, with Korean Register reviewing ShipWatch's calculation method but not its fuel-saving claims, Normec Verifavia certifying 90POE across six emissions regimes while leaving data quality with the owner, and Bureau Veritas approving Inmarsat's NexusWave for cyber; CMA CGM's head of ship management describes taking Orca AI watchkeeping from trial to 100 ships at Seaspan and reveals the data changed conversations with pilots, not just captains; Nauticus sells ROV autonomy as a retrofit that keeps the pilot in charge and claims over 20% efficiency; Sea puts BIMCO's standard clauses inside the fixture workflow; Hanwha Ocean pays MaumAI KRW2.1bn for autonomous welding; the Cannes navigation prize goes to assisted position-keeping rather than AI perception; South Korea forms a taskforce to write its autonomy technology into the international rulebook; and the people building the AI models publicly asked their own industry to slow down, in the same week shipping certified three speedometers

Maritime AI Digest — 6 September 2026

Weekly roundup: CMA CGM starts designing an AI-assisted containership with SDARI and Bureau Veritas and puts the real question in writing, which is how much control stays with the crew; ShipIn's chief executive answers a serving master mariner in print and publishes fleet numbers for the first time, then converts the company to a Public Benefit Corporation with a legal duty to report; Marcura launches a procure-to-pay platform where AI reads the invoice and matches it against the order; Fugro builds an AI marine survey hub in Singapore with government money and claims some analysis runs up to ten times faster; Kaleris buys Newport Systems to automate container repair approvals across 25 data links built over twenty years; GTT Marine turns the voyage data recorder from accident evidence into a weekly bridge monitor; Cydome ships a tool for tracking your suppliers' cyber certificates under IACS UR E27; and we count what shipping actually launched at SMM Hamburg and find plenty of products, almost no published results, and one question nobody wants to answer about who is paying for the AI accounts already in use
