BW LNG has signed an agreement with BASS Software to deploy BASSnet Neo software solution across its fleet of liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers and floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs).

According to a statement, the contract win followed a global evaluation process covering up to 30 solutions in the market.

“We are extremely proud to have been selected following such a comprehensive and competitive evaluation process,” said Per Steinar Upsaker, CEO & managing director at BASS Software.

“This contract underscores the strength of BASSnet Neo’s cloud-native architecture and our ability to support critical LNG and FSRU operations. Our platform provides a secure and scalable foundation for operational excellence across global organizations.”

Under the deal, BW LNG will use BASSnet Neo modules including maintenance, materials & inventory management, procurement and dry-docking.

The company will also use mobile apps such as the BASSnet Inventory, Inspectra and Projects.

“BASS stood out for its modern, future-proof cloud architecture, and also their willingness to work closely with us in the system validation process,” said Harald Martin Myhre, vice president of IT and digitalization at BW LNG.

“We are looking forward to see BASSnet Neo support our drive to leverage data in optimizing and streamlining our fleet management processes in the years to come.”

The solution will be delivered to BW LNG as a fully managed SaaS platform with a cybersecurity regime complying with ISO 27001 and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, BASSnet said.
