Case Study: Nippon Marine Enterprises achieves reduced weather risk and improved survey efficiency with StormGeo's Bon Voyage System

Nippon Marine Enterprises - Customer Case Study

Nippon Marine Enterprises, Ltd., a company that operates marine survey vessels and research submersibles for JAMSTEC, needed highly accurate, site-specific weather forecasts and real-time data to plan multi-day field surveys in remote ocean areas across different time zones. Previously unsatisfied with a local provider, Nippon Marine Enterprises turned to StormGeo’s Bon Voyage System (BVS) to meet requirements for forecast accuracy, timeliness, and cost-effectiveness.

StormGeo’s BVS delivers 24/7 global and site-specific weather and ocean forecasts (up to 16 days), voyage optimization and around-the-clock forecast coverage, with data sent in compressed email formats to minimize communication costs. Using StormGeo’s solution, Nippon Marine Enterprises achieved better survey planning and operational efficiency, clearer “go/no‑go” decision-making, reduced weather risk and lower communication expenses.
