Shipping assistance by MRD Marinesupport

Shipping assistance with a multifunctional vessel

The MRD Commander and the MRD Navigator are multifunctional vessels that can be used as patrol vessels and firefighting vessels. If the waterway is temporarily restricted due to certain circumstances, shipping assistance on site offers a solution. This also includes activities where safety must be guaranteed. With the MRD Commander or MRD Navigator you can easily carry out shipping guidance.

Active shipping guidance

During shipping guidance, the traffic controller on board continuously monitors the supply of ships. Depending on the activities and the situation, this traffic controller can use the VHF radio to provide instructions and information to shipping. In the event of an emergency, the traffic controller maintains contact with a nearby lock, bridge or traffic control post. In this way there is optimal shipping guidance.
