MUNIN Key facts

  • European FP7 project from Sep 2012 to Aug 2015
  • 8 partners with 2.9 million € funding
  • Focus:
  • Develop a concept for an unmanned merchant vessel
  • Validate concept in a simulator set-up

3

Maritime Unmanned Navigation through Intelligence in Networks

Rationale for unmanned vessels Sustainability and short term use

Current challenges of maritime shipping:

  • Highly competetive industry
  • Lack of young professionals
  • Rising ecological awareness

4

Autonomous ship as a long-term solution to:

  • Reduce operational expenses
  • Attract professionals
  • Reduce environmental impact

Definition MUNIN‘s autonomous ship

6

Autonomous ship

Next generation modular control systems and communications technology [that] will enable wireless monitoring and control functions both on and off board. These will include advanced decision support systems to provide a capability to

  • perate ships remotely under semi or

fully autonomous control.

Autonomous ship

No persons on board for whole or part of the voyage. The ship, with partial help from remote control, must be able to manage the voyage on its own.

Reasons:

  • Long deep-sea-voyage
  • Low risk cargo
  • Slow steaming attractivness

Autonomous execution The main operational mode

  • Ship system activities
  • Follow predefined voyage plan
  • Observe environment
  • Measure ship conditions
  • Shore Control Centre
  • Monitor ship status
  • Communication
  • Periodic updates ship-to-shore

Autonomous control Handling of known events

  • Ship system activities
  • Autonomously adapt voyage plan
  • If required: Involve Shore Control
  • Shore Control Centre
  • Ensure safe operation
  • If required: Acknowledge decision
  • Communication
  • Event-based data exchange

Remote control Intervention in a special situation

  • Ship system activities
  • Provide navigational data
  • Control is overrided by Shore Control
  • Shore Control Centre
  • Directly operates ship (remote bridge)
  • If required: Acknowledge decision
  • Communication
  • Direct link (communication tunnel)

Prioritized e-Navigation solution

  • S1: improved, harmonized and user-friendly bridge design;
  • S2: means for standardized and automated reporting;
  • S3: improved reliability, resilience and integrity of bridge equipment and

navigation information;

  • S4: integration and presentation of available information in graphical

displays received via communication equipment; and

  • S9: improved Communication of VTS Service Portfolio (not restricted to

VTS stations).

S1 Bridge design New sensor/detection systems

MUNIN needs improved sensor systems and automatic small and large target

  • detection. This could also assist OOW and outlook of conventional ships.

19

S2 Reporting Reporting from shore control centre

All mandatory ship reporting must be handled by shore control center in

  • MUNIN. This can also be pattern to relieve officers of administrative burdens.

20

Single point Of reporting

slide-21
SLIDE 21

S3 Navigational data reliability Improved navigational data fusion

As no crew is available to correct errors, improved and higher quality sensor and data fusion becomes necessary, including advanced object detection, AIS, GPS, other ship sensors as well as any other source that is available.

SLIDE 22

S4 Graphical displays (1/2) SCC displays for situation assessment

Shore control centre will normally be in charge of several ships. When something unexpected happen, they will need to be able to rapidly assess the sitaution as well as status of other ships. This can also be very useful onboard!

22

slide-23
SLIDE 23

S4 Graphical displays (2/2) Technical condition monitoring

Keeping track of technical condition of equipment, operational consequences in case of failures and planning of maintenance is critical for MUNIN. This is functionality that can also be used in conventional shipping operations.

S9 VTS Service portfolio Concept of SCC to assist OOW

MUNIN will rely on a shore control center to supervise and control unmanned

  • ships. Functionality here can also be used to assist OOW of conventional

ships, e.g., during nighttime or when little is expected to happen onboard.
