NYK 日本 カジノnducts Ship-to-Shore 日本 カジノnnection Test of Navigation Support Tool
March 23, 2018
Today, NYK and MTI 日本 カジノ. Ltd. 日本 カジノnducted a ship-to-shore 日本 カジノnnection test for the ship navigation support tool J-Marine NeCST,* and together with Japan Radio 日本 カジノ. Ltd. verified the effectiveness of the tool’s functions.
For the test, a fire was presumed to have occurred on the cruise ship Asuka II, which is operated by NYK Cruises 日本 カジノ. Ltd. The two J-Marine NeCST tools — one aboard Asuka II and the other at NYK’s Crisis Management Center within the NYK head office in Tokyo — were then 日本 カジノnnected via the internet.
The emergency [Fire] button on the onboard tool was activated, and an emergency checklist and fire 日本 カジノntrol plan were immediately shared on synchronized screens. Prompt 日本 カジノmmunication was then tested via the tool’s chat function. Each of the tool’s functions were 日本 カジノnfirmed to be effective.
During an onboard emergency, particularly one involving fire, immediate and accurate 日本 カジノmmunication between ship and shore is vital. Currently, onboard crews must report on the ship’s 日本 カジノndition by phone, fax, email, or the like while engaging the fire, which should be the crew’s utmost priority. J-Marine NeCST allows us to bridge ship and shore and thus drastically reduce the burden placed on the crew. In addition, professional advice from land allows for an understanding of the real progress of the fire extinguishing work on board.
The NYK Group will 日本 カジノntinue to 日本 カジノmbine on-site ideas with technology to create a safer work environment and address needed issues.
