What is Wrong with Current Systems + Methods?
Too Fragile
Too Complex
Too Expensive
Rely on Expert Systems
New Facility Designs Repeat the Errors of the Past
4
Why?Terminal Operations were Sub-Optimal in the First Instance
Accretion of Methods and Subsystems
Lack of Integration
Piecemeal Solutions
Keeping those Practices in Place only Embeds them Even Further
5
How to Go Forward
Look Outside the Industry
Stop Trying to Get a Different Result by Continuing to Do the Same Thing
Example - What was the Response to Larger Ships?
Add Ship-to-Shore Cranes
6
Large Robust RMGs
CMAA Class F - AISE Sever Duty
Replace Multiple Units
Lower Operational Cost per Unit
Higher Reliability > 99.99999
Higher Availability > 99.99999
7
Lessons Learned in Heavy Industry
Piecemeal Solutions Do Not Work
Integrated End-to-End Systems are Required
Automation is Not Justified Through Reductions in Head Count
Appropriate Automation Solutions Contribute to the Bottom Line While Maintaining Stable Labor Environment
