In port operations, safety and efficiency are key. Aids to Navigation (AtoN) are devices, systems or services external to vessels, designed to enhance the safe and efficient navigation of vessels and traffic, such as lighthouses, buoys, and beacons. Harbour Authorities bear the responsibility of maintaining navigational aids crucial for vessel safety within their jurisdiction. For these authorities, maintaining effective AtoN is not only a regulatory duty, but a critical aspect of safeguarding maritime interests. In an era of evolving regulations, policies, and increasing maritime traffic, optimising AtoN has never been more crucial. In light of the duty and importance of undertaking regular AtoN reviews, what are the benefits of a quality review, and what makes a quality review?

To save time, Subsea can provide provision supply and transfer of goods to ships while they are underway. If a ship is bypassing Brisbane or Mackay, and needs something before berthing at its next location, we can meet the ship outside of port limits to get the transfer done quickly. For example, we delivered navigational charts to a vessel en route to Newcastle to enable them to berth at their destination port. #launchservices #shippingservices #provisionsupply #commercialdiving #marineservices #shipping

In the bustling world of port operations, ensuring the safety and efficiency of mobile equipment is paramount. Termont, a leading port operator in Montreal, in collaboration with their partner EZSecur, embarked on an ambitious project to enhance the security and operational efficiency of their extensive mobile equipment fleet.

On 11 December 2023, the Cape Town Container Terminal (CTCT) received a delivery of seven pre-used rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTGs). The acquisition of the RTGs is part of Transnet Port Terminals’ (TPT) turnaround plan, whose key priorities include equipment availability in order to support operational efficiencies. The delivery of the RTGs coincides with the peak of the deciduous season, which is the busiest time for the terminal. The acquisition of RTGs is a display of TPT’s commitment to the industry and stakeholders as more reliable equipment directly leads to improved productivity while also ensuring seamless vessel movement within the port.  “The acquisition of additional RTGs in our terminal will go a long way in offering a reliable service to our customers, a much-needed boost for the growth of the Western Cape and South Africa’s economy. As a business, we are committed to deliver on our promise to customers and industry, thus equipment availability and reliability are at the core of what we do. These additional machines will enable us to improve operational performance and turn-around vessels on time,” said Western Cape Terminals Managing Executive, Andiswa Dlanga. #maritimeindustry #internationaltrade #importexport #capetownsouthafrica #portsandterminals

The selection and purchase of mooring ropes are pivotal yet often overlooked steps crucial for onboard safety. In the wake of MEG4 implementation, it's evident that challenges persist, particularly in the technical aspects of rope purchasing. 🚢 Issues like incorrect enquiries, requests for altered certificate values, or quotes without SDMBL references are more common than they should be. These initial purchasing oversights can lead to significant safety risks at sea. 🌊 At TEHO Ropes, we're committed to promoting informed purchasing aligned with MEG4 standards, helping to mitigate these risks. Together, we can ensure maritime safety remains paramount. ⚓ #TEHOROPES #SafetyAtSea #WeKnowTheRopes #MEG4 #MEG4Ropes

Vessel's motion astern must be carefully controlled. As the vessel begins to move in reverse, the crew will monitor the direction and speed of the motion astern closely. Due to the reduced speed, the vessel's handling characteristics are more sensitive astern compared to moving forward. Astern motion at slow speed requires patience, attention to detail, and effective teamwork to ensure the vessel moves safely and smoothly in the desired direction.
