DeadW8
digital deadweight management
What is DeadW8.net?
Tymor is proud to launch DeadW8.net, our marine-based tracking tech designed to cut costs, improve efficiency, and (figuratively) take the weight out of deadweight audits.
DeadW8.net is a secure database with the ability to track deadweight data, and is part of Tymor’s Integrated Stability Management philosophy. It gives the user the ability to identify deadweight inaccuracies, recognise the areas most sensitive to change, and analyse and interpret the data. It features an encrypted login using two factor authentication, a client-driven dashboard and comes with full support of Tymor’s technical team.
REMOVING THE WEIGHT FROM DEADWEIGHTS
Traditional deadweight audits generally occur every five years. They are inconvenient, they lack continuity in procedures and personnel, and it is a discrete event – there is little or no correlation with previous deadweight audits. Furthermore, traditional manual deadweight audits can produce unwelcome surprises and they lack crew ownership.

Digital Deadweight technology
Once installed, our new system, DeadW8.net, can reduce the cost of future deadweight vessel audits by up to 75%. The greatest benefits will be realised by larger vessels, including drilling rigs, FPSOs, cruise ships or warships that have larger crews and multiple changes in deadweight that are not always obvious, but the system is applicable to any vessel operator wishing to streamline work, improve efficiency and reduce cost.
Historical data is stored securely online and accessible to the client, allowing tracking over time with the use of graphs, images and videos, which avoids the need to start again from the beginning with each deadweight audit.
“Tymor Marine launches unique digital technology to cut vessel deadweight audit costs by up to 75%.”

track your stability with tymor
The DeadW8.net real-time database provides an auditable trail of deadweight to increase confidence of vessel weight distribution.

Optional features
We offer the ability to assign QR codes to tanks and spaces. This would involve QR code stickers being placed on bulkheads, which can be scanned with the DeadW8 mobile app to bring up area information. Information entered on the app will automatically update the online database.
Additional functionality is available to print a proforma deadweight report for direct submission to authorities.
