– Full-scale start of port automation test bed construction project in Gwangyang Port (6.29.(Wed)) –
The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries held the 'Gwangyang Port Automation Test Bed Launch Report Contest' at the World Marine Center located in Gwangyang Port on June 6th (Wednesday) and announced that the 'Gwangyang Port Automation Test Bed Construction Project' would begin in earnest.
Major ports around the world are using 4th industrial revolution technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) with the goal of securing efficiency and stability of cargo handling. (Full-Automated Port)' has been built and operated, and smartization is being promoted based on this recently.
* 6 ports including Rotterdam Port in the Netherlands, Shanghai Port in China, Long Beach Port in the United States, and TUAS Port in Singapore
The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries has also been promoting the establishment of a port automation-based test bed in Gwangyang Port to stably build a smart port, secure our technology related to smart ports, and strengthen industrial competitiveness. Since the establishment of the 2020 implementation plan, it has passed the preliminary feasibility study in November last year, and the full-fledged start of the project will be held with the opening report meeting on June 6 (Wednesday).
A total of KRW 3 billion was invested from 2 to 4 in the 2022 berths of the Gwangyang Port Phase 2026-6,915 container pier, 11 automated quay cranes (C/C, Container Crane), and automatic transfer equipment (L-AGV, Lift-Automated Guided Vehicle) Automated loading and unloading equipment, including 44 units and 32 Automated Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes (ARMGC), will be introduced mainly with domestic technology.
At the same time, infrastructure such as operational buildings, packaging, and communication will be built together, and the new technology test and verification area (area 9 mXNUMX) can be verified in connection with automated ports and related new technologies and equipment developed through R&D. )' is also built. Through this, various smart technologies can be applied and verified throughout the entire port logistics process, and when operational data is secured, domestic companies will be able to participate in smart port construction, which is expected to lay the foundation for the domestic industry.
To facilitate the project, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries and the project operator, Yeosu Gwangyang Port Authority (YGPA) will form and operate a consultative body, and plan to operate an 'Expert Advisory Committee' composed of industry, academia, and research experts. to be.
Kim Chang-gyun, Director of Port Department of Oceans and Fisheries said, “Amid the global logistics crisis, automation and smart ports are essential to secure domestic port competitiveness. We will do our best to successfully build the Gwangyang Port test bed and to quickly implement a smart port in Korea.”
