Abstract

The berthing and ship to ship operations are the most difficult and delicate phase for large tanker and LNG carrier operators and crew. From the viewpoint of the safety operation, it is important to watch motion under berthing operation at real time. Recently navigation systems using DGPS with electric chart are commonly equipped on almost of all vessels, but we focus at berthing operation and relative information between ship and ship to ship. This paper proposes ship to ship operations monitoring system (STSM) with high accurate DGPS. The STSM has a few modes, e.g. approaching docking and lighting mode for ship to ship operation. This paper introduces STSM with high accurate DGPS and full scale experiments. Copyright © 2002 IFAC
