Seadronix, Stolt Tankers, and Radio Holland Complete Europe's First Port-to-Port AI Trial
South Korea's Seadronix launched its Port-to-Port AI Platform in Europe on February 5, 2026, completing a successful trial with chemical tanker operator Stolt Tankers and maritime technology integrator Radio Holland — marking the first real-world deployment of end-to-end AI connecting vessel, shore monitoring, and port terminal into a unified ecosystem. The trial at Rotterdam's Botlek terminal demonstrates how AI can coordinate the entire navigation chain from departure to docking. Three-layer AI architecture: The platform integrates NAVISS Bridge onboard two Stolt Tankers vessels providing crews with 360-degree situational awareness and automated collision risk alerts, NAVISS Hub onshore enabling centralized remote fleet monitoring and AI-based navigation risk analysis, and AVISS at the Botlek terminal monitoring facilities, personnel, and vessel movements while providing predictive berthing and departure scheduling. Radio Holland delivered the complete ICT infrastructure ensuring reliable continuous data exchange across all three environments. Commercial impact for ship managers: The integration addresses a fundamental operational gap — ship navigation, shore monitoring, and terminal coordination have traditionally operated as separate systems with manual handoffs between each. By connecting all three through a single AI-driven ecosystem, operators gain continuous situational awareness from port departure through transit to destination berthing. The predictive scheduling capability at terminals also addresses berth congestion and traffic lane management, directly impacting vessel turnaround times. Seadronix CEO Byeolto Park stated: "This project fulfills our Port-to-Port AI vision." Radio Holland Director of New Business Wim Nieuwveld called the implementation "a significant step for maritime digital transformation" that sets a standard for advancing autonomous navigation systems. The companies plan to further investigate enhancements to navigation capabilities and integration with maritime data systems, supporting alignment with the IMO's upcoming Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) Code — positioning the platform as a practical pathway toward regulatory-compliant autonomous operations.
