In the maritime industry, port terminals face numerous infrastructure challenges, including inadequate draft depths, the need for regular dredging, outdated or insufficient equipment, insufficient berthing facilities, and insufficient hinterland connections. To mitigate the impact of increasing vessel sizes on port operations, advanced gantry cranes and expanded berthing spaces are essential. Governments worldwide are promoting public-private partnership (PPP) projects to boost investment in new port development. For instance, the Indian government plans to invest USD5 billion under the PPP model to construct four major new ports in Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, and West Bengal. These initiatives aim to address the infrastructure deficits and enhance the overall efficiency of port operations.
