Stonecutters Bridge, Hong Kong – Marine traffic simulation assessed the navigational risk and potential vessel delays associated with major bridge construction activities at a busy container port entrance.
Construction activity associated with Stonecutters Bridge involved lifting deck units from barges within the entrance to the Kwai Chung container terminals.
The potential impact of these operations on navigation safety and the movement of ocean-going vessels needed to be understood.
We used dynamic marine traffic simulation to model vessel movements around the port entrance and investigate how the proposed lifting operations could affect existing marine traffic.
The simulation enabled the potential increase in navigational risk to be assessed before the operation took place, while also examining potential delays to ocean-going vessels.
This provided evidence to support safer planning of major construction activity within an exceptionally busy marine environment.
Cruise Bay is Singapore's busiest marine passenger hub, which will see an increase in the movements of cruise ships within Cruise Bay and possibly lead to the use of Cruise Bay by ever larger cruise ships. BMT was commissioned to address these issues.
BMT SSGT concept design is a high mobility non-nuclear submarine with the approach and mobility of SSNs whilst retaining the advantages of the SSK.
Our adaptable VIDAR SSK submarines encapsulate a range of high capability design characteristics geared towards delivering affordable military effect.
