Here you can browse a selection of projects that have benefited from our Port Risk Management Services.
Navigational Risk Assessment (Rothesay)
ABPmer was commissioned to provide the Port of Rothesay with Navigational Risk Assessments to meet requirements of the Port Marine Safety Code (PMSC).
Ship to ship mooring analysis
We assessed whether the newest variant of RoRo vessels using the berth could be moored safely in a ship to ship configuration with the existing bollard locations. We used available MetOcean conditions to assess the maximum environmental conditions in which the vessels will remain alongside.

Harbour Authorities have a responsibility to investigate incidents, and where relevant, collate pertinent information and compile an investigation report with safety improvement recommendations.
PMSC Designated Person
Shetland Islands Council (SIC) is the Harbour Authority responsible for the operation of a number of ports, harbours and pier facilities around the Shetland Islands. These include the large oil terminal at Sullom Voe, the port of Scalloway and many other marine facilities across the islands.
PMSC ‘Health Check’ Audit (municipal ports)
The Port Marine Safety Code (PMSC) applies to all UK harbour authorities; the Code aims to improve safety in ports and to enable authorities to manage their marine operations to a nationally agreed standard. As part of the Code there is a requirement for harbour authorities to seek an independent and systematic audit to ensure that the MSMS is being operated effectively.
