Royal Wagenborg has appointed De Boer Marine to undertake a fleet-wide digital upgrade, as reported by Container News. This multiyear initiative will encompass around 160 general cargo vessels, including both owned and managed ships.

The primary objective of this program is to enhance various aspects of the vessels' digital capabilities. Improvements are expected in ship-to-shore communications, ensuring more reliable and efficient data exchange.

Furthermore, the upgrade aims to bolster onboard digital systems. This will likely involve modernizing existing IT infrastructure to support advanced operational requirements and improve overall efficiency.

A significant component of the project focuses on improving internet access for crews. This enhancement is intended to provide better connectivity for personnel aboard the vessels, as stated by Container News.

De Boer Marine will be responsible for delivering an integrated digital solution to achieve these goals. The comprehensive upgrade covers connectivity, information technology, and cybersecurity across the entire fleet.
