Bringing large vessels into port is an important and complex process that requires the ship’s captain, tug skippers and port operators to precisely coordinate their efforts – working as a cohesive unit.
Situational awareness is mission critical here. Port operators need high range and accuracy of navigational measurements, clear visibility and access to relevant information in real time.
SafeTug® from Trelleborg provides all this and more to create a more effective pilotage experience. It increases operational visibility for all parties to make port approach, berthing and departure easier, safer and more efficient. SafeTug® is built upon the same strong foundation as SafePilot® and together with our other products they shape a Smart Port solution.
General highlights:
· Assist vessels into harbour with realtime tracking and prediction.
· Fast overview of how your activities effects the assisted vessel.
· Assist any vessel, even AIS only vessels.
· Supports safe, warning and danger zones for offshore STS operations.
