Introduction to MUNIN

  • Munin ("mind") is one of Odin's two ravens flying out in the morning and

reporting news of the world to their master in the evening.

  • Hugin ("thought"), the other raven, is

also the name of a commercially successful autonomous submarine (AUV).

  • Here, MUNIN is the name of a new

EU project researching the unmanned, autonomous ship.

Autonomous Slow Steaming

  • Environmentally
  • Reduce CO2 emissions with 54%
  • Economically
  • Offset increased crew costs
  • Societal
  • Make crew available for more demanding tasks, closer to home, offset

lack of crew, increase job attractiveness

11

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Technology also applicable for today's ships

  • Improved sensor and detection systems
  • Less accidents, less stress for seafarer
  • Improved technical maintenance strategies
  • Less accidents, less off-hire
  • Improved ship-shore cooperation
  • Better crew support, relieve crew of excess work, ashore ‘ship-sitting’

Communication technology and information transfer

  • Dependent on trade area and cost one have to expect varying degree of

communciation service (bandwidth and latency)!

Lookout and collission avoidance

  • Arpa and AIS exist on board.
  • Small object detection radar, IR cameras, low light cameras etc. are

available.

15

Key challenges are to integrate sensors and to classify objects automatically

slide-16
SLIDE 16

System robustness

  • Today ship safety is to some degree based on the ability to repair

equipment during voyage.

  • Autonomous ships need high confidence level for no critical failures

during sea leg!

  • Very high reliability and fail-to-safe procedures required!

16

New approaches to component redundancy as well as preventive maintenance are required.

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Ship-shore coordination

  • Ship operator needs a central operations centre ashore.
  • Coordination with other entities when necessary:
  • Other (autonomous) ships
  • Pilot, VTS …
  • General ship reporting (FAL, SOLAS)
  • SAR
  • …

17

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Legal and contractual issues

  • Flag state jurisdiction without master ?
  • COLREGS ?
  • Insurance and liability ?
  • Safety at sea – SAR ?
  • …

18

Probably the main problem: It will take time before we see the first fully autonomous ship!

Is the autonomous ship possible?

  • Technology is mostly available: Need to be integrated and improved
  • Integration in maritime transport system is a challenge: Shore, other

ships, SAR

  • Legal issues and liability clearly a show stopper today

What will MUNIN contribute?

  • Demonstration and tests of the technical issues
  • Legal and cost-benefit analysis
  • New technology also for today's ships
