VTM version 2.0 has been rolled out. The revamped tool allows user to setup a waterway network, define visiting nodes for vessels and patterns of call, as well as generate vessel traffic by providing specifications of component parameters.Simulation runs can identify risk in different parts of the waterway network, under different traffic levels and operations scenarios. Approaches to ease the situation can also be evaluated to quantitatively evaluate their impact before they are implemented.
SimPlus’ VTM has been applied for projects in Singapore and Malaysia. Contact us at marketing@simplus.sg to find out more and to request for a brochure.

With a liquid bulk terminal planned at Jurong Port, it is important to assess whether the expected growth in general and bulk cargo can be adequately sustained in future. SimPlus was tasked to conduct the study for JPPL.
SimPlus’ berth simulator was configured to emulate JPPL’s berth operations setup. Required data analysis was conducted to determine the traffic and corresponding attributes of calling vessels. Future traffic scenarios were then simulated to determine whether target service levels could be achieved in future.
Based on the study, SimPlus put forth certain recommendations which will be used by JPPL when planning their future operations.

SimPlus has been commissioned to conduct a formal safety assessment for a multi-agency project involving Ministry of National Development (MND), Maritime Port Authority (MPA), Jurong Town Corporation (JTC) and Housing Development Board (HDB).
Extending the project completed for MPA, this study is to focus on the traffic in the regions of interest in the Port of Singapore, over the next couple of decades, and assess the risk level under the different peak traffic scenarios. Under IMO’s FSA framework, SimPlus’ Vessel Traffic Management (VTM) system will be used for the purpose.
