Port support
Berthing
Support for berthing maneuvers with dedicated crew and vessel.
About the service
Berthing support places a dedicated crew and vessel alongside the ship throughout the maneuver window. The launch follows the approach, supports line handling and keeps constant communication with the pilot and the terminal, so the berthing happens safely and without delays.
Vitsea has worked the maneuvers of Espírito Santo's ports since 2013, with 24-hour readiness — the vessel is in position before the window opens, at any time and in any operating condition.
