Cosco Shipping Ports (Spain) Valencia Terminal will co-operate with Data and System Planning (DSP) and the Dutch logistic analysis and optimisation specialist TALUMIS to build a digital twin of the terminal.
[s2If is_user_logged_in()]The main aim of the project is to support daily operational decisions and optimise processes and the use of equipment.
“With this partnership, we see an excellent opportunity to remain at the forefront on a technological level. Thanks to new technologies, digital twins will revolutionise the way container terminals make decisions, offering operational efficiency, managing high volumes of data and avoiding dangerous situations, which will lead to safer and more efficient decision making, increasing the overall performance of the terminal,” said Ivan Deosdad, director of projects CSP Spain and Ignacio Huet, Information Technology (IT) director CSP Spain in a joint statement.
As a general strategy, DSP and TALUMIS finalised an important partnership agreement, according to an announcement, to develop and market together innovative vertical software solutions in the area of simulation, emulation, predictive analysis and artificial intelligence for the Container Terminal industry to support operators in their daily operational decisions.
The agreement is crucial for the industry and an important action for the DSP Group, according to Giambattista Ravano, chairman of DSP, who said that the agreement “establishes an alliance that strengthens our ability to develop advanced technology in the sector and the endorsement of CSP Valencia tells us that our vision is going in the right direction.”
TALUMIS engineers and mathematicians and DSP specialists in automation and terminal operations will focus on three particular areas: Forecasting (Digital Shadow – the calculation model based on existing data), Simulation Model (Digital Mirror- manually support to terminal operations) and Automated optimisation (Digital Twin- run the optimising again when new data is available).
“Digitalisation is a tool, not the result,” pointed out Marco Fehmer, CEO of DSP and chairman of DSP LAB, who went on to add, “We aim to provide concrete solutions to daily problems and enable terminals of any size and operations mode with the latest technology.”
CSP Spain is a maritime terminals operator with interests in Bilbao, Valencia, Madrid and Zaragoza, while CSP Iberian Valencia Terminal has a strong strategic position in the Mediterranean with its proximity to the Suez-Gibraltar axis.[/s2If]
