The Artemis EF-12 Pilot set to be delivered before the end of the year, will enhance the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the port\u2019s operations, marking a significant step toward a fully net zero pilotage service.<\/p>\n
\u201cAdding the EF-12 Pilot to the port\u2019s fleet is a significant milestone not just for the Port of Tyne, but for the maritime sector as a whole,\u201d said Matt Beeton, CEO at the Port of Tyne.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the first UK port to adopt this groundbreaking technology, we\u2019re not only improving standards of safety and efficiency but also delivering a more sustainable operation in support of the Government\u2019s Maritime 2050 strategy. Together, we\u2019re shaping a cleaner, smarter future for ports across the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n
