Avec l’arrivée de porte-conteneurs toujours plus grands, les pilotes doivent faire preuve d’une capacité de manœuvre toujours plus fine au sein d’infrastructures portuaires qui, elles, ne s’élargissent. Au Havre, plus qu’ailleurs, les géants de tous bords repoussent les limites de la performances …

From May 25 to 29, laser tests were carried out at the François 1er lock. Realized by the company MARIMATECH in collaboration with the pilots of Le Havre and the staff of the Port of Le Havre, these tests were intended to verify that a laser can be used in addition to the on-board DGPS to make a doubt about the calculated position of the ship.
The principle is as follows: in the phase where the ship is in range of the laser (located on the ground), this one scans the environment and follows the ship, its target. The position of the ship is calculated and compared to that provided by the onboard DGPS. Doubt about the position provided by the latter can therefore be lifted.
The station arranges a conference meeting in Le Havre. The topic is “Port facing gigantism”. With professionnals from Antwerpen, Panama and Le Havre, two aspects will be studied.
The first will tackle the big projects of maritime and harbour infrastructures. Speakers will present the «Deurganckdoksluis» lock plan of Antwerpen, the third locks of Panama canal design studies and the new infrastructure plan of Le Havre port.
The second will concern the ship’s evolution design and their handling. Speakers will describe maritime access of the Escaut river and Le Havre harbour, the transit through the locks of Antwerpen, Le Havre and Panama.
In a world looking for more efficiency, technology and safety, this meeting will enable each other to share their expert appraisement and their way of working in order to take up the challenge of gisgantism.
