When it comes to reducing vessel emissions and fuel consumption, ports can play a significant role. Mooring solution engineering firm Cavotec believes its next-generation automated vacuum mooring system, MoorMaster NxG, can do just that by reducing docking and turnaround times in port. "As the inventors of vacuum mooring, we've used every minute of data from 20 years' service to redesign MoorMaster from the ground up to deliver faster, smarter installation, improved performance, continuous monitoring and easier maintenance," says Cavotec chief executive Mikael Norin. He says MoorMaster NxG is an "all-in-one unit with a smaller, more streamlined footprint and an aesthetically pleasing design." Cavotec says shorter turnaround times translate into more time cruising at lower speeds, lowering fuel consumption. Automated mooring improves port productivity and enhances worker safety.
