A top-rate and reliable creation and integration of Control and Instrumentation Systems is imperative for every vessel and rig to function as designed. The control room, which works as the nerve centre of operations is where a myriad of functions and systems on board are closely monitored to ensure safety and efficiency. Marshal Systems understands this key element in its clients’ safety and performance and its job is to make sure that the control room’s systems network in place works smoothly and dependably. While some functions can be automated, the best systems are the types that utilize both humans and machines. Something that we are able to deliver and maintain with excellence.
To ensure that these nerve centres function optimally, the controls must be sensitive and reliable; and the instrumentation has to be of the highest clarity and accuracy. At Marshal Systems, we provide control and instrumentation solutions that translate to real and trustworthy value.
Marshal Systems offers a complete range of Controls and instrumentation Systems that include:
This list is not exhaustive as Marshal Systems is continually expanding its portfolio of products and services.
Marshal Systems’ Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) is designed in accordance to marine / offshore standard codes and certified by international class regulatory bodies, to monitor various system alarms and alerts critical conditions of the processes throughout the facilities. We design the VMS as a distributed I/O system which is scalable to meet end-users / operational crew’s demand at any time.
The design philosophy is to achieve high reliability, safety and cost efficiency. Redundant CPU and Servers allow critical applications to continue operating even if there is a single component failure, hence it prevent the risk of downtime. Remote I/O cabinets are connected to the main cabinet via redundant communication (Profibus / Profinet / MODBUS / Controlnet).
Marshal Systems has developed AFMS whose core concept is to monitor and pre-alert the operator about the connected system’s abnormality via alarms to prevent the system failure.
The occurred alarms will be logged in a built-in data logger as a history log; it will support maintenance crews for fault analysis and troubleshooting to minimize down time for a smooth operation.
Marshal Systems supplies Alarm Monitoring systems to notify the operators on alarm and status information of the machinery, in order to maintain safe and efficient operation of the onshore and offshore facilities. We customise the systems according to operation needs and ensure that the system is user–friendly too.
Our user-friendly HMI provides the alarms and other information as text or graphical representation on local and remote operator’s station. Alarms from various systems are received by the Redundant CPU PLC, which will process the alarms and log the events. These alarm events can be printed out by alarm printer.
Marshal systems delivers Tank Gauging system to end-users for their monitoring of various types of tank , in term of tank volume / mass / level, such as ballast, water, draft, bilge, fuel oil, cement and solid matters … in the offshore and onshore facilities.

Our system compliance to major marine class regulation bodies such as ABS, DNV-GL, BV, Lloyds Register … etc.
The Valves Remote Control is reliable for the management of ballast valves to fill and dump ballast tanks. The system consists of a PLC control cabinet, remote I/O cabinet and a Centralised Solenoid Valve Cabinet. The HMI screen will be customised to meet operators requirement.
Marshal Systems provides Water-tight door and hatch monitoring systems to monitor the status of the water-tight doors and hatch accesses, as a parts of vessel watertight integrity in the marine vessels and floating offshore installations. Our system will be design to compliance to major marine class regulation bodies such as ABS, DNV-GL, BV, Lloyds Register … etc.
The system consists of Sensors like proximity / limit switches, local indication lights, HMI / Mimic display panels and main PLC control cabinet. The system provides open / close status of the watertight doors and Hatch accesses. The system can be interface to other alarm monitoring system or vessel monitoring system via various communication protocol such as Modbus, Profinet, Ethernet.
Marshal Systems provides Bulk Transfer Control system of the Bulk Mud and Cements (such as Barite, Bentonite & Cement) for offshore supply vessel (OSV) and drilling rigs. Our system will be tailor-made to meet operators’ requirement for the safe and hazardous areas.
The system uses PLC and guided microwave level sensor to control the valves and monitor the level of the bulk tanks during bulk transfer process respectively. The bulk transfer process can be displayed in P&ID format using HMI screen or mimic display panel.
