Shipowners are turning to the Swedish Club’s digitised loss-prevention tool TELP for guidance on how to operate vessels in the coronavirus crisis.

The Gothenburg-based mutual launched the system late last year. After a trial, it went live just in time to help its members overcome the current difficulties in operating ships.

TELP, or Trade Enabling Loss Prevention, works by automatically sending shipowners critical loss-prevention information based on the destination input on a ship’s AIS.
