Port operator DP World, in cooperation with Dubai-based professional company DG World for autonomous cars, robots and artificial intelligence, has equipped Jebel Ali PORT (hereinafter referred to as JA Port) with a complete set of internal automatic cargo terminals.
The deal includes all relevant integration of the existing operational processes and infrastructure of DP World flagship port. DG World said in a press release that DG World would deliver and integrate autonomous technologies for the existing fleet of internal terminals in stages to improve the overall efficiency of terminals and reduce the size of existing terminals, but the specific contract price was not disclosed.
Mohammed Al Muallem, chief executive officer and managing director of DP World, said: "we will use today's cutting-edge technologies such as robots, automation, internet of things, big data, virtual reality and network security to improve our overall work efficiency."
Through this project, DP World is in a leading position in introducing self-driving cars and related technologies into daily operations.
Bilal Al-Zoubi, founder and chief executive officer of DG World, said, "our previous experiments on new technologies have proved that artificial intelligence software solutions have the potential to improve efficiency and automate existing container terminals."
The company first developed an automatic container truck in 2016. DG World makes full use of industry 4.0 and internet of things technology,and is committed to developing and implementing fully autonomous artificial intelligence technology and autonomous and advanced robot systems.
This is very consistent with DP World's move and strategy to introduce digitalization and latest technology as the new global standard for traditional port operations and supply chains.
DP World将在杰贝阿里港引进自动驾驶汽车
港口运营商迪拜环球港务集团(DP World)与总部位于迪拜的自动驾驶汽车、机器人和人工智能专业公司DG World合作,为杰贝阿里港(Jebel Ali PORT,以下简称JA港)配备了一整套内部自动货运站。
该交易包括对DP World旗舰港现有运营流程和基础设施的所有相关整合。DG World在一份新闻稿中表示,DG World将分阶段为现有的内部终端机车队交付并集成自主技术,提高终端机的整体效率,并缩小现有终端机的规模,但具体的合同价格没有披露。
DP World首席执行官兼董事总经理Mohammed Al Muallem表示:“我们会运用当今的前沿技术,如机器人、自动化、物联网、大数据、虚拟现实和网络安全,来整体提高我们的工作效率。”
通过该项目, DP World在将自动驾驶汽车和相关技术引入日常运营方面处于该地区的领先地位。
DG World创始人兼首席执行官Bilal Al-Zoubi对此表示,“我们基于先前对新技术的实验证明,人工智能的软件解决方案具有提高效率和实现现有集装箱码头自动化的潜力。”
该公司在2016年首次研发了一款自动装卸的集装箱卡车。DG World充分利用工业4.0和物联网技术,致力于开发和实施完全自主的人工智能技术、自主和先进的机器人系统。
这与DP World引入数字化和最新技术作为传统港口运营、供应链的全球新标准的举措和战略非常契合。
