More tools for port of Tanger Med
Wärtsilä will co-develop a new port management information system (PMIS) for the port of Tanger Med. The organisations recently sealed their long-term commitment to deploy modern smart port tools for port operations and digitalisation – including implementing just-in-time (JIT) solutions, machine learning and AI.
Amongst others, Tanger Med is strongly committed to the international taskforce PCO (port call optimisation), which is bringing together several international ports including the ports of Rotterdam, Antwerp, Hamburg and Los Angeles to harmonise and optimise procedures for the management of maritime calls.
The joint initiative includes the delivery and installation of a Wärtsilä navi-harbour VTS system comprising a port link port management information system, Iala advanced coastal surveillance radars, a VHF radio sub-system and an automatic identification system, an operator workstation, network systems, ancillary equipment and a five-year service and support contract.
