Kick-off del progetto e conferenza degli stakeholder
In qualità di coordinatore del progetto GREENPORT Alliances, l'Università Piri Reis ha ospitato i nove partner del progetto provenienti da sette Paesi il 28-29 febbraio 2024. Il meeting di avvio, tenutosi il primo della due giorni, ha riguardato l'intero consorzio e ha discusso il piano di lavoro e la strada da seguire per la durata del progetto.
La conferenza degli stakeholder ha segnato il primo traguardo del progetto e ha visto l'impegno dei principali stakeholder del settore marittimo e delle istituzioni educative. Durante la conferenza, ogni partner del progetto ha presentato i propri ruoli e responsabilità all'interno del progetto e gli impegni che saranno assunti nel corso dei 36 mesi del progetto. Rappresentanti del settore marittimo turco come Sanmar Shipyards, l'Associazione dei costruttori navali turchi (GISBIR), Yanmar Holding, Sakura Marine, Kilyos Shipping, Kamer Marine, GDS Engineering, CSS Turkey, NAVTEK, Gübretaş Port, GISAŞ Port e l'Associazione turca dei piloti hanno partecipato attivamente alla conferenza. Sono state condivise le strategie innovative per ridurre le emissioni di carbonio nel settore attraverso presentazioni tenute dai rappresentanti di Turkon Line e GISAŞ.
Project Update: Diving Deeper into Sustainable Shipping
Activities outlined in “Task 3.2 – Scientific Analysis” commenced in November 2024 (M10). These activities will span a total period of six months, concluding in April 2025. This task plays a pivotal role within the project as it focuses on developing alternative analyses and identifying case studies to demonstrate how the application of different operational methodologies can significantly impact harmful gas emissions. The planned activities are divided into three main phases, each characterized by specific objectives and a targeted operational approach.
The first phase, referred to as desk analysis, will take place between November 2024 and January 2025. This phase will involve the preliminary collection of relevant data and the structuring of case studies. Based on the review of available documents and sources, it represents the starting point for developing alternative operational scenarios. Subsequently, during the second phase, from February to mid-March 2025, the development of case studies will proceed. This activity will incorporate innovative analytical approaches, including targeted interviews with industry experts, to delve deeper into the identified methodologies. Finally, the third phase, from mid-March to April 2025,
will focus on integrating lessons learned. The goal will be to translate the outcomes from the previous phases into practical and concrete recommendations for designing specific training curricula.
The activities of Task 3.2 build upon the results of “Task 3.1 Cross-sectoral identification of best practices”, which identified 13 practices classified into three main clusters. Cluster 1, focused on emission reduction, addresses strategic aspects related to environmental sustainability. Cluster 2 emphasizes operational efficiency improvements, prioritizing technical and managerial aspects. Cluster 3 centers on engagement and professional development, highlighting educational and training dimensions.
These practices were selected through an in-depth analysis of scientific articles, institutional documents, and questionnaires, involving partners and industry operators such as pilots and tugboats. Specifically, the questionnaire survey generated 35 useful responses, which led to the addition of 4 new practices to the initial list, while retaining the original cluster classification.
An additional phase of work resulted in the ranking of 12 Best Practices, evaluated using 10 distinct parameters divided across five perspectives: environmental, economic, social, technical, and institutional. This multidimensional evaluation provided a solid foundation for designing training curricula, which will be further enriched by the outcomes of Task 3.2.
Task 3.2 represents a crucial milestone in the overall project trajectory, as it lays the groundwork for the subsequent Task 3.3, which will culminate in the preparation of an internal document containing targeted recommendations for training development. The integrated approach adopted in Work Package 3 stands out for its ability to ensure a systemic and multidimensional vision, actively involving experts and stakeholders. This method optimizes project outcomes and promotes an operational model oriented toward the sustainability of port operations.
