Marcura and Sedna Partner to simplify maritime workflows
(Posted on 15/06/25)
Marcura and Dataloy Systems have announced a new phase in their long-standing strategic partnership, adding deeper automation and embedded insights into Dataloy's Voyage Management System (VMS).The expansion is designed to give chartering and operations teams direct access to key Marcura products, including DA-Desk, Portlog and Marcura Claims (formerly ClaimsHub), without the need to switch systems.For many maritime professionals, Dataloy is their primary operating environment, used to schedule voyages, appoint agents, and monitor voyage profitability. Embedding Marcura’s workflows brings those tasks into one interface, ensuring teams have the information they need, exactly when they need it.
Marcura and Dataloy have long offered integration through the DA-Desk Integration System (DIS), supporting automated synchronisation of port call, DA service order triggers, invoice retrieval and posting, and live DA milestone updates.
The latest expansion to the partnership adds significant new capabilities, including enabling chartering and operations teams to view predictive port costs and waiting times within Dataloy, powered by Portlog’s global port performance data. For more granular analysis, a simple one-click navigation takes users directly to the relevant page on the PortLog platform.
Marcura and Dataloy continue to invest in joint development. The next phase will focus on:
• Enhanced PortLog insights – Deeper visibility into context-relevant data from PortLog including turnaround benchmarks, delay predictors, and likely terminal assignments.
• Integration with Marcura Claims – Claims calculations triggered from port events and automatically synced to the voyage record to improve post-fixture claims handling.
• Laytime tool interoperability – Supporting both Dataloy and Marcura laytime solutions, with synchronised outputs across teams.
Dylan Ray Mace, Vice President, Sales & Partnerships, Marcura, said: "Chartering and ops teams already live in Dataloy. They don't want to waste time navigating several tabs just to check port costs or follow up on a DA. This integration brings vital information into their existing workflow, saving time and keeping focus where it matters.”
Erik Fritz Loy, CEO of Dataloy Systems added: "Our users told us they wanted fewer systems to manage, not more features to learn. Our partnership with Marcura delivers exactly that, more capability within the workflow they already know."
