Specifically also in modelling of Commercial vs Operational / Performance Risk / Opportunity (especially
as Shell has many ‘hats’ as charterer, operator, owner and player in innovation and project technology. Any projects around emissions / carbon footprint? Autonomous shipping?<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Interested to learn more about how we can upskill the community in the do’s and don’ts of Data Science (e.g. removing outliers, filling in data gaps, extrapolating data) and how we can take users on the
journey ultimately leading to them trusting the tools more.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>

the resulting insights.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">From my point of view the main objective of the session is to answer Paul’s questions in support of his strategy. Thereafter I have interest in tools that allow us to gain more insights from the data we
receive. I am also keen to see how we can use data to inform technology decisions. When we met in London you did a great job of bringing a digital link to every theme. In particular, we spoke about human factors and technology that can measure stress.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">I’m interested to explore subjects and technologies that you have applied in other industries and what you have learned. These are easy wins for our group if we can replicate these across to shipping.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>

<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve got a 15 minute presentation to Shell next Tuesday as part of Gopal’s Centre for Maritime Futures. They’re apparently interested in the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">They are interested in safety, clean energy, and efficiency:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- trading <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- managing streaming data <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- route optimisation and scheduling<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- robust sensing for difficult environments<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- monitoring for safety (on the bridge or in their tanks or in the docks)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- air quality monitoring around docks<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- compliance and assurance<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- CDT<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- hiring interns and running hackathons.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The aim of the meeting is to identify and establish potential projects, that will hopefully turn into funded studentships or postdocs. Please send me a slide(s) by the end of this week if you have an potential project idea or current project
that’s of relevance (and of relevance to IoT).<o:p></o:p></p>
