19-20 November 2019 | Fira Barcelona Gran Via | Smart City Expo World Congress

Ports are having to react quickly to changes in the shipping supply chain. With lots of mergers and acquisitions in the container industry, and increased growth in the cruise sector, there is steep competition to attract vessels, particularly on popular trade and tourist routes.
In the current climate ports are in an arms race to optimise their offering, increase the number of vessels they can turn around through transparent, efficient systems, and provide facilities for mega ships.

This year Smart Ports Summit Barcelona will be launching at the Smart City World Expo between 19-20 November 2019. Run in collaboration with the Port of Barcelona, the conference will be a meeting point for the entire supply chain to address topics around optimisation of operations and long-term integration of technologies enhancing existing processes and networks.

Greek coastguard tender
VIKING to supply Greek Coast Guard tender

VIKING Life-Saving Equipment has been declared the winning bidder in a tender covering three offshore high-speed ambulance boats that will support emergency services in the Aegean Sea.

The international tender was concluded after a cooperation between the Hellenic Coast Guard and the Greek Emergency Response Organization (EKAB) in an initiative supported and financed by the European Union under the INTERREG V-A Cooperation Programme 2014-2020.

It is understood that all three ambulance boats are scheduled for delivery during the summer of 2020, to take up station operating from remote Greek islands in the Aegean.

The vessels will be fabricated using the successful VIKING Norsafe Munin S1200 design and will be equipped with twin-diesel stern-drive engines to achieve speeds of up to 40 knots, as well as cutting-edge navigation instruments.

Port of Mombasa to modernise four berths

It has been reported in Kenya that Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) intends to invest US$193 million to modernise four berths at the port of Mombasa. Our illustration here shows Mombasa’s second container terminal (www.africaports.co.za © ).

While the berths have not been identified it is understood that they currently handle containers and breakbulk general cargo.

Financing will come from commercial rated loans being offered by the European Investment Bank and French development agency AFD, according to Daniel Manduku, the managing director of the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA).

The port of Mombasa recently opened a new container terminal which is being operated by a division of the Italian shipping company, MSC. The port is the main gateway port for neighbouring landlocked countries in the East Africa region – Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, South Sudan, southern Ethiopia and parts of eastern DRC.
