“We are excited to welcome Napier Port as the first port in the region to adopt RightPort,” said Andy Symonds, head of APAC at RightShip.

“This partnership demonstrates Napier’s commitment to enhancing maritime safety and sustainability, and aligns with RightShip’s mission to create a safer and greener maritime industry.” 

RightPort screens inbound vessels against bespoke criteria helping ports and terminals streamline their pre-arrival processes, reduce administrative workload, and improve communication with vessels.

RightPort also connects users to a global network of ports, allowing them to access feedback reports and vessel insights from other users. 

“RightPort will help us to further improve our operational efficiency, safety standards, and environmental performance,” said Todd Dawson, chief executive of Napier Port.
