MPA and NYK collaborate on Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship trials

These tested the interoperability of autonomous vessels.

The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA), Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK), and MTI Co., Ltd. recently held a joint workshop for port-to-port Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS) trials.

In a joint statement, the parties said this collaboration is amongst the initiatives from the MPA-NYK Memorandum of Understanding in 2024 to deepen partnership and accelerate maritime decarbonisation, digitalisation, and manpower development efforts.

The MASS trials will test the interoperability of autonomous vessels with port-based systems, including MPA’s Vessel Traffic Information System, and enable the development of best practices and standards for navigation safety, route planning, fuel consumption, AI-based decision-making, communications, and cybersecurity in the port of Singapore.
