Port Tanjung Pelepas to increase efficiency through AI technology

The port of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP) in Malaysia has signed an agreement to deploy Innovez One’s Artificial Intelligence-powered Port Management Information System (PMIS).

The purpose of the MarineM system, which will be used by PTP, is to improve the efficiency and scheduling of the port, through digitalisation.

The system is expected to be integrated in the port at the beginning of the third quarter of 2022.

“The transition of digitalisation and automation is speeding up in the entire maritime industry,” said Marco Neelsen, chief executive officer of PTP.

MarineM will provide an interface where agents can register their vessels and order services to support arrivals such as supplies, logistics and marine services.

Using AI-powered and machine learning algorithms, MarineM’s planning module will automatically manage schedules and shipping resources.

In fact, according to Innovez One, this system can immediately reallocate resources if a vessel’s estimated time of arrival (ETA) changes, thus reducing waiting times and making PTP more resilient in the face of congestion.

MarineM will also allow agents to monitor the status of their orders in real time and automate the billing process.

It also includes a live map where port managers will be able to see the movements of each vessel.

“This significant technological milestone will unlock new efficiencies at the Port of Tanjung Pelepas and ensure that all pieces fall into place seamlessly to support ships’ arrivals and departures,” commented David Yeo, CEO and founder of Innovez One, adding, “Digitalisation is now more important than ever, in order to make ports more resilient to disruptions and avoid the multiplication of seemingly minor delays that can exacerbate port congestion.”

Additionally, PTP has recently announced an investment of US$178.5 million (RM 750 million) to expand its container capacity.
