Rope-free vacuum mooring solution
Eliminates snapback risks, improving safety
Improves vessel stability at berth
Quick mooring and release operations increase port throughput and revenue
Contributes to sustainable operations
AutoMoor is Trelleborg's innovative rope-free automated mooring system, designed to elevate berthing operations. AutoMoor units eliminate the need for mooring lines and are meticulously engineered to enhance operational efficiency while bolstering safety standards. These units employ cutting-edge vacuum pad and passive damping technology to swiftly and securely attach vessels to the berth, adapting to various environmental and berthing conditions.
Powered by SmartPort technology, AutoMoor connects assets and continuously monitors all mooring loads experienced by vessels at the berth. It also delivers real-time data to operators, enabling the optimization of day-to-day port and terminal operations.
Reduces turnaround time for vessels to berth and depart, increasing port throughput
Dampens vessel surge and sway motions at berth by optimizing the application of mooring loads
Decreased reliance on tug boats for berthing and de-berthing reduces waiting and scheduling delays
Enables ports to reduce emissions through less use of vessel engines during mooring operations at berth, as well as reduced tug boat operation
Enables berths to accept larger vessels without the need for costly wharf or dolphin extensions
Eliminates the need for breakwater infrastructure, reducing capital investment in port construction
Reduces peak loads on fender equipment and wharf structure, therefore prolonging asset life
