Thrilled to highlight Vulcan’s latest advancements! 🌟 With enhanced forecasting tools, Vulcan leverages EIA-860M data and a robust project ranking system to identify 35 GW of projects at risk of cancellation. Improving your generation stack by delivering sharper, more reliable power modeling. SynMax Energy #Energy #Vulcan #DataDriven #SynMaxenergy #OilandGas #SynmaxIntelligence #SynMaxEnergy SynMax Energy
🔍Vulcan’s Forecasting Upgrades ‼️ Vulcan now forecasts the full genstack, combining EIA-860M data with a cutting-edge project ranking system. We’ve pinpointed and excluded 35 GW of likely-to-be-canceled projects, delivering sharper, more accurate power modeling insights! Key insights: - Projects without approvals face the highest cancellation rates. - Wind sees more cancellations than solar. - California leads in project cancellations. Next: Vulcan UC will include historical delays for even better projections. #EnergyInsights #Vulcan #DataDriven #SynMax #coal #EnergyInnovation #Genstack #OilandGas #SynmaxIntelligence #SynMaxEnergy SynMax

With EURONAVAL around the corner (4-7 November), it is becoming increasingly clear that Maritime Domain Awareness requires of large amounts of daily imagery and a powerful AI platform to help D&I customers. Simply put, there are too many places where to look. This is why Planet is partnering with SynMax to provide actionable maritime intelligence (Military Vessel Behaviour Analysis, Trafficking, Bunkering, etc.) The Planet/Synmax delegation will be looking forward to meet with you next week in Hall 6, Booth L86.

Russia to Offset Vessel Shortage Imposed by Western Sanctions on Arctic LNG 2 Project with Ship-to-Ship Transfers In response to Western sanctions limiting its access to essential ice-class tankers, Russia is taking steps to streamline its Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and gas condensate operations from its Arctic LNG 2 project. The country aims to boost the efficiency of cargo movements by employing ship-to-ship transfers, unloading cargo from specialized ice-class vessels to conventional tankers in the Barents and Bering Seas. This strategy allows ice-class tankers to quickly return to Arctic LNG terminals for further collections, mitigating the shortage imposed by sanctions. The sanctions, which particularly restrict the availability of ice-class vessels, have forced Russia to explore alternative logistical solutions to maintain the flow of LNG and gas condensates. By conducting ship-to-ship transfers at sea, Russia hopes to maximize the use of its limited fleet, ensuring that the critical ice-class vessels are not delayed in transit but remain focused on the Arctic terminals where their capabilities are most needed. As winter approaches and ice builds up in the Arctic, the demand for ice-class vessels is expected to rise dramatically, further intensifying logistical challenges. With additional sanctions set to take effect in March 2025, restricting entry to EU ports, Russia is racing against time to adapt its operations. If Russia moves forward with these plans, ship-to-ship transfer facilities are expected to be established at Chosha Bay, Barents Sea, and a further site at Kresta Bay in the Bering Sea. #Theia, SynMax Maritime’s maritime domain awareness platform, closely tracks developments related to Russia's Arctic LNG 2 project. By monitoring vessel movements and ship-to-ship activities in the region, #Theia provides critical, real-time intelligence on how Russia navigates the increasing constraints of Western sanctions. #ArcticLNG2 #ShipToShip #MDA #WhyGuessWhenYouCanKnow
