Oman’s Almouj Marina boosts safety with new tracking software

Security

Oman’s Almouj Marina, in partnership with Qnective, recently installed a new automatic identification system (AIS) to boost traffic control, collision avoidance, and navigational safety at the Marina in Muscat

The AIS control station can view any AIS equipped vessel under coverage range and can display the vessel’s position in real time. The pilot project has been successfully installed and tested at the Marina, and is presently fully operational on two vessels and one control station.

Almouj Marina is dedicated to not just improving its facilities but also adding value to the maritime industry in Oman, according to authorities.

The installing of the AIS falls in line with the goal to boost the safety and security of the operations at Marina.

Located within Al Mouj Muscat development at the heart of Al Marsa Village, Almouj Marina is a premier marina facility and flagship yachting destination accommodating yachts from 10 to 40 metres. Almouj Marina features the largest breakwater in the world, with an overall length of two kilometres, facilitating easy access and offering very safe mooring.
