Gastops completed a full season of field testing for its innovative fluid monitoring system in collaboration with Leeway Marine. The system provides real-time data on oil condition and contamination in engines, gearboxes, and other critical machinery, enabling predictive maintenance and improving asset reliability across various industries.
Throughout 2024, Gastops and Leeway Marine evaluated prototype systems aboard the hydrographic survey vessel RV Novus, gathering valuable performance insights under real-world conditions. Based on these findings, Gastops has upgraded the system and will continue testing in the 2025 sailing season, supporting vital marine research. “Our collaboration with Leeway Marine has been extremely productive,” said Brennan West, Vice President, Defence and Aftermarket at Gastops. “Their operational expertise and willingness to test new technology in real-world conditions have been instrumental in advancing the development of the monitoring system. As an organization, Leeway is such an invaluable asset to the Canadian innovation ecosystem. We’re grateful for their partnership and commitment to innovation.”
