AutoMoor

Description

• Reduces turnaround time for vessels to berth and depart, increasing port throughput.

• Dampens vessel motions by reducing peak mooring loads due to surge and sway movements. Port operations can continue safely in a greater range of environmental conditions.

• Decreased reliance on tug boats for berthing and de-berthing reduces waiting and scheduling delays.

• Decreases port emissions thanks to the reduced time taken to moor the vessel, as ship engine idling is diminished and tug vessel time at berth reduced.

• Minimizes infrastructure upgrades while increasing berth capacity, by eliminating the need for wharf extensions or mooring dolphin investments for port terminal upgrades.

• Reduces the effects of passing ships in narrow waterways and the long period wave motions experienced in some ports and harbors, by damping motions of the affected vessel

• Removes the need for breakwater infrastructure lowering port and t.erminal investment requirements.

• Reduces peak loads resulting in reduced civil requirements.

• SmartPort system integration.
