News from Singapore Maritime Week: Maritime 5G Network and Drone Port 24-28 April 2023
Singapore Maritime Week was chock-a-block with news on technological innovations. SMS Transport Chee Hong Tat announced that a maritime 5G network would be rolled out in phases in the major anchorages, fairways, port terminals, and boarding grounds, starting from this year. The network is expected to be completed by mid-2025. An initial use case involves the provision of medical services and medical supplies.
Lauding the use of maritime drones to increase the flexibility and efficiency of ship-to-shore deliveries and remote ship inspections, SMS Chee also announced that a Call for Proposal (CFP) would be made later this year to set up a drone port for ship supplies deliveries. He said, "The CFP will act as a pathfinder for public agencies and private companies to develop a concept of operations for drones that is suited to Singapore’s operating environment as a busy hub port."
