Making sure global trade keeps rolling on
As infrastructure is critical for the movement of goods worldwide, ensuring that ports continue to operate is vital for global trade.
To ensure that ports remain operational, an asset management system capable of assessing potential issues and taking action to prevent them is required. However, as global trade changes, ports need to adapt. Upgrading a port system while it continues to be operational requires a tremendous amount of planning, expertise and experience.
At Alan Wood & Partners, our specialist engineers have significant experience managing assets at the UK’s busiest port complex – the Humber – as well as at many other ports across the UK. We have provided expert input into port asset management plans and have guided operators through major infrastructure changes to accommodate new and diverse cargoes while minimising disruption to other port users.
