Cetasol and Furuno Sweden Partner to Enhance Energy Efficiency at Sea

Cetasol, an innovator in intelligent maritime efficiency solutions, announce a strategic collaboration with Furuno Sweden. Through the partnership, Furuno will distribute and install Cetasol’s iHelm platform, while also integrating its functionality into Furuno’s display systems, expanding access to advanced operational insights for vessel operators.

The collaboration combines Furuno’s renowned navigation and communication technologies with Cetasol’s iHelm decision support solution, enabling operators to achieve greater fuel savings, efficiency, and sustainability. Through this partnership, iHelm will also be made available directly within Furuno displays, offering a seamless experience for captains and fleet managers alike.

Cetasol’s core solution is iHelm — a decision support solution for the entire fleet. iHelm helps save fuel, track vessel performance, stay compliant, and maximise uptime – with real-time decision support and data-driven insights.

The system continuously gathers data directly from the vessel, enabling real-time recommendations to the captain using Cetasol’s digital twin technology. All operational data is also transmitted to the cloud-based dashboard, giving fleet managers and business owners access to both real-time and historical performance metrics, AI-driven decision support and predictive maintenance capabilities.

Ethan Faghani, CEO and Founder of Cetasol:”At Cetasol, we are committed to making sustainable operations a simple choice for the maritime industry. Partnering with Furuno Sweden strengthens this mission by making iHelm more accessible to operators across the region. Together, we are enabling vessel owners to combine advanced navigation with intelligent decision support, helping the industry reduce costs and emissions while moving towards a more sustainable future.”

Jeremy Peter, Head of Commercial at Cetasol: “For Cetasol, partnering with Furuno marks an important milestone. Furuno has long been synonymous with navigational safety and reliability. Together, we are combining that legacy with Cetasol’s data-driven decision support tools to help vessel operators achieve new levels of efficiency and sustainability.”
