My speech at the conference
Nowadays, most of cargo ships are moored with ropes. This process requires up to 12 people and takes up to 60 minutes. Moreover, it is one of most dangerous operation. Each year 1.2 per cent people become injured during the mooring.
In the smart port the automated mooring system can significantly reduce time, operational risks and manpower. It consists of a number of units with mobile pads. While these pads contact ship’s side they use magnetic or vacuum technology to fasten themselves with ship and then tug it to berth. It reduces operational time on approximately 30 minutes and requires only 3-4 people.
Another operation, which is needed to be improved is the container handling at terminals. Today, in the most ports one operator is required for one crane.
In the smart port up to six automated gantry cranes can be handled remotely through cameras by one operator. In this case there will be no necessity for shift changing at the cranes working area. Hence, wasting time and operational risks will be decreased.
