Santos takes port efficiency to the next level

PortRISK will provide Porto de Santos with a comprehensive risk management solution to transform how it navigates the challenges of pre-arrival preparations as it works towards a safer and more sustainable future.

“At Porto de Santos, we strive for excellence, and this partnership provides us with crucial data and insights to help us work towards a safer and more sustainable future in our port,” said Anderson Pomini, CEO at Porto de Santos.

Port insight

Built on an extensive database of maritime vessels, incidents and companies, the tool will allow the port to plug into a global collaborative network, giving access to feedback reports and vessel insights from other ports and terminals.

Feedback includes the operational performance of individual vessels. This enables ports and terminals to plan and improve efficiency and service, cutting down dwell time and improving on emissions.

Available 24/7, the technology screens every inbound vessel against a complete risk-based criteria. Meanwhile, digital forms and questionnaires ensure that communication between vessels and port is rapid, organised and relevant.

“Porto de Santos is the largest port in Latin America and a leader in innovation and best practices across the region. By adopting RightShip’s cutting-edge risk management solution, the port will transform its approach to vessel-based risk assessment, and, we believe, will make a positive impact beyond its own waters,” said Steen Lund, CEO at RightShip.
