Applying Edge and Cloud Computing in the Maritime Industry

Fri, 15 Sep 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Today, the world of information technology is undergoing an unprecedented evolution, driven by two revolutionary concepts: Edge Computing and Cloud Computing. These two technologies have transformed the way companies manage, process, and store data, enabling greater efficiency, scalability, and agility in an increasingly competitive business environment. In this article, we will explore in depth what Edge and Cloud Computing is, how they complement each other, and the advantages they offer for the maritime industry. What are Edge and Cloud Computing? Edge Computing refers to the practice of processing and analyzing data close to its origin, i.e., on devices or servers closest to the source of data generation. Unlike Cloud Computing, which involves sending data to remote data centers for processing, Edge Computing brings computing and analytics capability directly to the edge of the network, close to the connected devices. This offers several advantages, such as lower latency, faster processing, and the ability to make real-time decisions. Both belong to the fourth industrial revolution along with the internet of things. Cloud computing, on the other hand, is based on the delivery of computing services over the Internet. Instead of maintaining local servers and equipment, companies can access computing resources, such as […]

How artificial intelligence is transforming port security

Fri, 14 Jul 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven to be a revolutionary technology in many aspects of our lives, and one of the fields in which it is having a significant impact is port security. A clear example of this technological revolution is being carried out by the Port of Rotterdam. With the increasing globalization of trade, it is essential to have efficient and effective security systems. Implementing Just in time technology thanks to the digitization of ports, allows these security systems to be increasingly efficient since important data is transmitted in real-time in a way that improves the strategy, planning, transparency, and visibility of the port. At Prosertek we developed our own BAS system (Berthing Aid System) that allows us to monitor berthing and mooring operations in maritime terminals, and all the factors involved in real-time. Advanced surveillance and monitoring One of the most important aspects of port security is the constant surveillance and monitoring of activities. Artificial intelligence has enabled the development of advanced video surveillance systems that use pattern recognition and machine learning algorithms to detect suspicious or unusual behavior. These systems can analyze large volumes of images and videos in real-time, automatically identifying activities within the port itself. In […]

Mare Commercial Diving given the go ahead to perform underwater inspections of ships

aukera — Mon, 25 Apr 2022 09:18:41 +0000

The hull is one part of a ship that requires constant maintenance and care for the ship to continue to operate safely and in accordance with the law. This means that every so often thorough inspections must be carried out that are highly recommended to be performed in the water. Mare Commercial Diving (MCD), a company from the Prosertek Group, has just being approved as a supplier of submarine services to ships (In Water Surveys). This followed a thorough assessment process of quality systems, administrative protocols and work procedures. Those responsible for accrediting it are the main Classification Societies such as the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Bureau Veritas (BV), Det Norske Veritas-Germanischer Lloyd (DNVGL), Lloyd’s Register (LR) and Nippon Kaiji Kyokai ‘ClassNK’ (NK). They have have certified that MCD’s technical staff, facilities and equipment meet international standards to perform underwater inspections of ships. This inspection allows MCD to expand its range of services for the shipbuilding industry, since underwater inspection in lieu of dry-docking, (UWILD) allow ships to avoid costly berthing in dry dock to carry out mandatory periodic inspections. In other words, it is a much faster and less expensive process than the dry dock alternative. The importance […]

Siport21, a new key endeavour in the Prosertek expansion project

aukera — Mon, 29 Nov 2021 08:44:02 +0000

The Prosertek Group acquires stakes in Siport21, thereby strengthening its entrance to the field of new technologies applied to the port sector. Siport21 is dedicated to the business of port simulation and consultancy and this incorporation will enable Prosertek to forge ahead in its mission of providing value to clients while competing in the emerging field of Smart Ports. This is a very astute acquisition, given that both are outstanding specialised companies enjoying high technological value and international background in the port-maritime sector, with myriad synergies in the field. Following the acquisition, founding partner José Ramón Iribarren will remain at the head of Siport21 as its Managing Director. However, the engineering companies and founding partners Berenguer Ingenieros and Hidtma will no longer figure as shareholders. Siport21, safer and smarter ports Siport21 is a maritime-port consultancy with a background spanning two decades of specialisation in the study of ship behaviour. Its installations include a Real Time Ship Manoeuvring Simulation Centre certified by DNV-GL, both for the carrying out of projects and for the training of Merchant Navy personnel. Over the years it has produced more than 1,200 studies in 53 countries, having trained more than 1,700 sailors from 50 shipping […]

Grupo Prosertek has a new division, which will further consolidate its range of global services for ports and terminals. The leading company in port engineering services has acquired Mare Commercial Diving, a diving and underwater work company based in Asturias. This acquisition has enabled Grupo Prosertek to consolidate its expansion in the port services segment. Mare Commercial Diving’s experience and team of professionals, in particular, will allow Prosertek to directly offer underwater maintenance work for ports, ships, reservoirs, desalination plants and the aquaculture industry to name a few, without the involvement of any middlemen. Toward a comprehensive range of services This integration is the culmination of a long-standing history of synergy between the two companies. It all began when Prosertek, in its ongoing desire to solve the challenges facing its customers, identified the need for many ports to contract a range of types of underwater jobs. Its search for the best professional team that could carry out this type of inspection and maintenance of submerged structures, led it to Mare Commercial Diving, an Asturian company that stands out for its team of highly trained technicians and certified divers. This led to a partnership agreement to offer the best advice and […]
