MPA and PSA Singapore Seek Proposals for Autonomous Container Feeder Vessel Solutions
The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) and PSA Singapore have issued an Expression of Interest (EOI) to solicit proposals for the development and testing of autonomous inter-gateway container feeder vessel operations within Singapore's port. These vessels are essential for moving containers between terminals, such as Tuas and Pasir Panjang, and play a critical role in the port's daily operations. The initiative aims to explore the use of autonomous technologies to enhance efficiency, safety, and reliability in port operations. The EOI seeks to assess the technological readiness, operational feasibility, and safety of these technologies in a rigorous operational environment. The project also includes plans for a remote operations center to integrate vessel sensor data and port traffic information for real-time monitoring and intervention. Proposals must address key considerations such as navigational safety, interaction with manned vessels, traffic management, and cybersecurity. Interested parti...
