The maritime industry manages 80% of the international trade in volume, it is also responsible for 3% of the GHG emission. Aware of this impact the IMO imposed since 2020 to vessels to use fuel with a lowest level of Sox or to implement technologies that decrease GHG emissions. One option is to use vessels fueled with LNG, Ammonia, or wind power. Yet these options may question the profitability of the current business model. Maritime navigation has also an impact on human health.
Regarding port activity, roughly 80% of emission in ports are related to shipping activities while 20% to trucks and locomotives (ITF, 2014). Thus, questioning the way ports manage their GHG emission due to their activity is consistency. Using electrically powered tuck on their own or associated with the development of multimodal option such as barges or railway could be a solution to lower the negative impact of economic activity of both ecosystem and human health.
The use of data reinforces the link between vessels and ports. First, data is paramount for the anticipation of flows entering within or leaving the port. Using historical data may allow to anticipate the arrival of vessel and hence to settle the good, tools and resources for loading or unloading of vessels. Second, It gives the opportunity to connect with the good number of barges and trucks. Third, from a maritime point of view, may provide the possibility to define the optimal speed according to the port capacity and ease the communication between maritime agent, ports authority, terminal operator, and the vessel.

Session 1: Enhancing the Resilience of Maritime Infrastructures in the Post-Pandemic World
The world has experienced different types of uncertainties and risks, of which some have led to serious disruptions in maritime transport. The vulnerability to disruptions were not only due to obsolete systems and facilities, but also short of reliable methods in enhancing the quality of resilience planning in maritime facilities. Hence, the session aims to fulfil the following: 1) To explore and quantify climate-related risks and to develop a rational planning methodology for the adaptation of maritime transport systems and facilities to climate change, 2) To design security risk diagnosis and prediction tools and to establish robust procedures for the assessment of threats and vulnerabilities associated with maritime transport, 3) To identify maritime transport hazards due to the emergence of new technologies and operational environments, and 4) To develop new theoretical analysis frameworks for risk-based resilience in maritime transport.
Keywords: Risk, resilience, maritime transport, climate change, planning methodology, data management

Session 2: The role of ports in supporting maritime transport decarbonisation transition
Ports are areas where cargo changes mode of transport, often involving idling time for all transport modes, therefore they could have an important role to play as freight decarbonisation hubs. This can take many forms; examining application of technologies (e.g. smart ports) and how these enhance ‘refuelling’ of transport modes with clean energy while they are loaded/unloaded within the port. However, the requirements for suppling alternative fuels are not similar to diesel. Therefore, we must increase operational efficiencies to provide access to green power. To achieve that, investment is required in port infrastructure to enable them to play green hub role in decarbonising freight.
Keywords: Ports, decarbonisation, smart ports, green power, multimodal transportation.

Session 3: How to optimize the GHG emissions in the transportation of maritime containers to the hinterland?
To deliver the container at the final destination, road is the easiest way but of the course not the most low carbon solution. A greener solution would certainly be a multimodal one.
Many regular barge or rail services are connecting the port to the hinterland but how to choose the best solution regarding economical, environnemental and transit time aspects.
Comparing these different modes is a udge work which requires more than 100 calculations.
To solve this problem, some new informatic tools are emerging under the name of "multimodal route planner".
This session will developp the way these solutions work and what type of benefits you can reach thanks to them.
Keywords: container managment, hinterland, multimodal, low carbon solution.

Session 4: Forecasting zero and low carbon fuels; current status future developments and data needs – Fleet management and simulation tools
The maritime industry’s ambitious decarbonization goals call for fleet managers’ strategic choice for fleet renewal, both through retrofit and new constructions. In addition, an increased complex regulatory matches competing zero and low carbon fuels, maturity level of technologies and compliance with regulations (EEDI, EEXI, CII, MRVC, EU ETS). The workshop will integrate these questions with a case study of applicability with wind-assisted ship propulsion technologies. This workshop will discuss how data (fleet register, fuel prices, technological forecasting) is used to manage fleet investments. Questions to be addressed include:
• What is the potential of cost forecasting tools to identify best scenarios of environmental technological upgrade in current fleets?
• What is the maturity level and forecasting status of zero and low carbon fuels?
Keywords: Fleet management; Simulation; Cleaner technologies; Zero and low emissions; CII, EU-ETS; Energy-saving technologies

Session 5: Autonomous ships in commercial operation – feasibility, system design, technology roadmap and challenges
Studies focusing on commercial operational aspects of maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS) are welcome in this session. Despite significant technological development over the last decade, concern related to safety, cyber security, and trust in the artificial intelligence (AI) captain remains. Further, economic, social and environmental impacts of MASS are also uncertain. Studies on assessing operational safety, mitigating cyber security risk, trust in MASS, technological roadmap of MASS implementation, economic feasibility, social impact and acceptance, barriers to MASS adoption, and environmental outcomes will be presented in this session.
Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, maritime autonomous surface ships, safety, cyber security, environmental issue.

Session 6: Innovations for shipping in the context of new environmental policies
This session tackles the different types of innovations that can help the shipping industry to comply with the new or future environmental policies developed by different local, national and international regulators while keeping profitable. These innovations can be technological, operational, fuel related, etc.
For instance, studies considering the use of different technologies such as autonomous vessels, new engines, new energies, scrubbers, emission capture, artificial intelligence, big data analytics can be considered. When looking at data, it raises several issues related to cybersecurity, technology used to collect data. More specifically, among the technologies implemented to reduce GHG emissions, the use of data for the definition of an optimal pathway can be a solution for autonomous ships which would enable them to anticipate winds and currents. However, the use of such technologies may also impose to rethink the organization of maritime transportation at global or regional level.
Keywords: maritime navigation, risk, route optimization, uncertainty, big data, environmental modeling.
