Angola has become one of the most important maritime nations in West Africa, driven by offshore oil operations, cargo shipments, and continuous vessel activity along its busy coastline. With ports like Luanda, Lobito, Namibe, and numerous offshore terminals supporting global shipping, vessels operating in Angola need dependable marine electronics support.

A key system requiring consistent attention is the Voyage Data Recorder (VDR). Master Systems proudly provides specialised service for Netwave in Angola, ensuring your VDR remains compliant, reliable, and ready for any inspection.

Why Netwave VDR Systems Matter

Netwave’s NW-6000 VDR series is designed for harsh marine conditions and delivers dependable long-term data recording. Acting as the ship’s “black box,” a Netwave VDR continuously captures:

• ECDIS and radar images
• AIS, GPS, and navigation data
• Bridge audio
• Alarm logs and sensor values
• Engine and system activity
• Vessel performance and movement data

This information is essential during investigations, audits, and operational reviews. Regular servicing ensures your system stays compliant with IMO requirements and performs without interruption.
