Fjord1 has signed a development contract with UniSea, choosing our technical platform to support their daily operations.  The agreement includes UniSea Maintenance, UniSea Procurement and UniSea Maindeck for the next generation of vessels, the "Autonomous Crossing" at Lavik - Oppedal.

UniSea Maintenance is built for simplicity, control, and smart planning. Custom dashboards give each role exactly what they need. Forecasting tools help cut waste and keep spare parts in check. And most importantly - the entire module is designed from the ground up based on real feedback from crew onboard.

Geir Hillersøy, Head of Technical Operations at Fjord1, is impressed by the new Maintenance module: “We were impressed by the user friendliness of UniSea Maintenance. It’s clear that it's built by people with the right background, the whole system just makes sense.”

Kurt Roar Vilhelmsen, CEO of UniSea, shared: “Fjord1 sets the standard in Norwegian ferry operations. We’re proud they’ve chosen UniSea Maintenance to support their technical team. It’s a great match, and we look forward to working closely together.”
