They also nabbed 46 illegal immigrants trying to enter Singapore by sea last year, a slight drop from the 49 illegals in 2013. Policing Singapore's coastline is also challenging, considering that the Republic is one of the world's busiest seaports.Also, Singapore's shoreline is less than 500m from the international boundary at some places. "This gives us little reaction time and space to respond to any sea-borne threats before it reaches our shoreline - which could be less than a minute for a boat travelling at high speed," said Mr Teo.The new patrol interdiction boats (PIBs) and second generation PK-class high-speed interceptors, which will significantly improve the coastal police's interception capabilities.They are also sturdier, with shock-mitigating seats. The interceptors, in particular, will have improved ability to withstand hard impact during operations. Its reduced engine noise emissions and lowered profile will also help the boat in stealth missions. Meanwhile, the PIB will have beaching capabilities that allow "officers to dismount on land quickly to continue pursuit if their target gets to shore".They are also equipped with a Stabilised Naval Gun System, which can track targets automatically and is more accurate in 2016 .11 PIBs and six interceptors are added to the sea police's current fleet.

Photo : Simon Smith © Boskalis secures multiple dredging contracts in Germany Boskalis recently secured three contracts for coastal protection and port maintenance activities in Germany. These dredging contracts carry a combined value of EUR 45 million for Boskalis and will all commence in the coming months. The first contract was awarded by the German Waterways and Shipping Office WSA Weser-Jade-Nordsee to upgrade the existing coastal defense on the island of Wangerooge to provide flood protection to the island’s residents. This project will be executed with a local German partner and involves the reinforcement of the groins and revetment for which 200,000 Distribution : daily to 43.100+ active addresses 14-10-2020 Page 4 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2020 – 288 tons of rock will be used. In addition to a backhoe dredger a number of split barges will be deployed. Construction works will commence in November 2020 and are expected to be completed late 2021.

Boskalis furthermore received a contract award from WSA Weser-Jade-Nordsee for maintaining a 90-kilometer-long section of the shipping fairway of the Weser river between Nordenham and Bremerhaven. Under a two-year maintenance contract Boskalis will dredge a total quantity of around 14 million cubic meters of sand and silt, which will be deposited at designated locations along the river. Boskalis will deploy a medium-sized trailing suction hopper dredger to carry out the dredging work that will start early 2021 and last until the end of 2022. The third contract that Boskalis secured was awarded by Niedersachsen Ports for the maintenance of the port of Emden, one of the largest German North Sea ports. Starting 1 November 2020, Boskalis will maintain the port at the required depth by dredging an annual volume of around 2.7 million cubic meters of sand and silt with a trailing suction hopper dredger for two consecutive years. Boskalis’ strategy is aimed at benefitting from key macro-economic factors which drive worldwide demand in our markets: expansion of the global economy, increase in energy consumption, global population growth and the challenges that go hand in hand with climate change. The project on the island of Wangerooge is aimed at combatting the consequences of extreme weather related to climate change. The activities in the Weser river and the port of Emden are largely driven by the need to maintain the accessibility of ports to accommodate global seaborne trade. With its groundbreaking activities and unique expertise, Boskalis is exceptionally positioned to play a significant societal role in creating and protecting welfare and advancing the energy transition.

French containerline CMA CGM has confirmed that the company’s e-commerce sites have resumed operations with all their main functionalities up and running. The recovery took two weeks, after initially being hit by the cyber attack on September 28.A number of CMA CGM’s websites went down, the culprit later revealed as the ransomware Ragnar Locker. The French carrier later announced that in addition it might have suffered a data breach.CMA CGM became the latest name in container shipping to be hit by a cyber attack, with leading liners Maersk, MSC and Cosco all being hit in recent years. “All communications to and from the CMA CGM Group are secure, including emails, transmitted files and electronic data interchanges. All our agencies as well as our back-office are now fully operational. The CMA CGM Group would like to thank its customers and partners for their understanding, their trust and their support,” CMA CGM said in a release. Source : Splash 247 Panama City Port Authority dredging project continues The Panama City Port Authority met Thursday and discussed the dredging that has been going on at the port for the past several weeks.According to the Port Authority Chairman, Harvey Hollingsworth, the process has been going on now for the last 60-90 days — although the entire process itself has been years in the making. Now the project is almost complete. Hollingsworth says this project will be beneficial for the port as a whole. “The opportunity we had with the East Terminal, is that the West Terminal is nearing capacity. So if we dont have a place to expand we’re kind of doomed. So by getting this terminal dredged, we’ve expanded this opportunity for the port for at least another 50 years of service to the community. Jobs and commerce will be flowing through this port. So it’s a lot more opportunity than we had before,” said Hollingsworth. Although the project is almost complete, it could be some time before the dredging is utilized.

  • Carnival Corporation & Plc to Transfer AIDA Cruises' Aidablu Cruise Ship
    Carnival Corporation & plc to Transfer AIDA Cruises' AIDAblu Cruise Ship to U.K.'s Ocean Village in Spring 2007 August 4, 2005 MIAMI, Aug. 4, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE: CCL; LSE) (NYSE: CUK) today announced that AIDA Cruises' AIDAblu cruise ship will be transferred to its Ocean Village brand in spring 2007. The transfer follows recent orders for three new 68,500-ton cruise ships for the German brand to be delivered in spring 2007, 2008, and 2009. Additionally, Princess Cruises' Regal Princess, which was originally scheduled to be transferred to Ocean Village, will now remain within the Princess Cruises fleet. "This is an excellent opportunity not only to expand Ocean Village's presence in the U.K. market but also enhance the brand identity of AIDA Cruises. With the addition of these new 68,500-ton cruise ships, AIDA Cruises will be comprised of six modern 'club ships' that cater exclusively to the German- speaking market," said Micky Arison, Carnival Corporation & plc's chairman and CEO. Because the AIDAblu and Ocean Village's current vessel are sister ships and designed to provide an informal, contemporary cruise experience, minimal modifications will be required to convert the AIDAblu to reflect the characteristics of Ocean Village's product. At the same time, Arison noted that retaining the Regal Princess under the Princess Cruises umbrella will enable the brand to maximize its earnings potential. "The strength of the North American cruise market is a compelling reason to keep the Regal Princess within Princess Cruises' fleet. It is one of the world's most successful and recognizable cruise brands and market conditions dictate a need for more capacity, not less," he said.
