Understanding collision risk from future vessel growth
Marine traffic simulation assessed how increased cruise and ferry movements from new facilities could affect future collision risk at the entrance to the bay.
Marine traffic simulation assessed how increased cruise and ferry movements from new facilities could affect future collision risk at the entrance to the bay.
Cruise Bay already experienced significant activity from cruise liners and local ferries.
New facilities were expected to increase vessel movements, creating a need to understand how future traffic growth could affect navigational safety and collision risk at the entrance to the bay.
We applied dynamic marine traffic simulation to examine the impact of increased vessel activity and assess collision risk within the entrance to the bay.
The modelling allowed the safety implications of future traffic growth to be investigated as part of the development planning process, providing quantitative evidence to help inform decisions about the safe operation of the expanded facilities.
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.
Ma Wan One-Way System, Hong Kong – DYMITRI demonstrated how a proposed one-way traffic system could significantly reduce vessel encounters and navigational risk in a heavily trafficked waterway.
BMT partnered with HydroSurv and South Devon College to demonstrate how remote operations, automated docking and high-fidelity simulation can enable safer, more scalable and cost-effective uncrewed vessel operations.
Our digital twin technology enables predictive maintenance and smarter asset management, cutting costs and improving efficiency for CTV operators.
