NEW AUTONOMOUS TRUCK ECOSYSTEM RESHAPES TERMINAL OPERATIONS
It has always been Hutchison Port’s goal to focus on improved safety and terminal efficiency, while lowering costs and delivering greener solutions across the group’s global network of ports.
Taking advantage of the latest technological tools available in recent years, Hutchison Ports is the first port operator to achieve ‘true’ mixed traffic mode terminal operations implementing AI autonomous truck technology into daily operations.

UNLEASHING THE POTENTIAL OF AUTONOMOUS TRUCK TECHNOLOGY
The success of implementing autonomous truck to Terminal D is reliant on its advanced technology and the re-creation of a new terminal operating ecosystem. It provides a perfect platform for the next generation of ports with safety at the heart to future developments.

AUTONOMOUS TRUCKS BENEFITS
With regular and unstable extreme weather conditions impacting the planet, ports are at the forefront of extreme heat and cold, high winds and rainstorms. Autonomous trucks can operate around the clock 24/7 under extreme weather conditions.

|
|
|
GLOBAL ROLL-OUT STRATEGY
The demand for autonomous truck performance, productivity and reliability will exceed manned trucks with higher AI and better sensor technology available in the near future. The trend to adapt AI autonomous truck technology for terminal operations is becoming more acceptable and is expected to be widely introduced and in-use at new purpose-built automated ports, just like the automated rubber tyred gantry cranes, straddle carriers and remote control cranes.
