Het huurcontract van de 22-jarige linksback loopt na dit seizoen af: https://t.co/96gT4zpzjj He is quoted by Voetbal International as saying: “In principle We are looking at the option of extending that We think he fits in with Feyenoord and the team culture.” Bueno will now be having discussions with Wolves officials about his future when he returns to Molineux this summer loaning Bueno out again next season doesn’t feel particularly smart Certainly, if Rayan Ait-Nouri leaves then he cannot be allowed to leave Bueno is perfectly primed to succeed the Algerian and would save the club millions on a replacement via the transfer market The money made from Ait-Nouri’s sale could then be used to strengthen other positions Although he’d likely want regular football there could be potential for Ait-Nouri to play further forward next term – in Matheus Cunha’s position freeing up the left wing-back role for Bueno A second loan to Feyenoord seemingly wouldn’t really help Wolves He should either be kept or sold for pure profit Van Persie’s Feyenoord win a match without a single shot on target Thuram and Calhanoglu send Inter into Champions League quarterfinals Robin van Persie is proving his critics wrong after making a sensational start as head coach of Feyenoord, guiding the club to their best league opening in over five decades. Since taking charge, the former Manchester United and Arsenal striker has led Feyenoord to seven wins and one draw in his first eight Eredivisie matches, matching a record only surpassed by the legendary Ernst Happel, who won all eight games at the start of the 1969 season. Under van Persie, Feyenoord have been ruthless in attack, racking up 24 goals in their current seven-game winning streak. The team’s dynamic, attacking style has won over fans and silenced early doubts from the Dutch media. Van Persie began his coaching journey at Feyenoord’s youth academy before briefly managing Heerenveen. His appointment in Rotterdam initially raised eyebrows, with critics questioning whether he was ready for a top job at a title-challenging club. Those doubts have quickly faded, with Feyenoord now firmly in the Eredivisie title race and playing their most exciting football in years. The club’s remarkable form has fans dreaming of glory—and van Persie’s bold start suggests bigger things may lie ahead.

in the port of Rotterdam on 12 April This marks an important step in preparing the port for vessels bunkering clean ammonia The first ships capable of using ammonia as a bunker fuel are expected in 2026 or 2027 The pilot involved transferring 800 cubic meters of liquid cold ammonia at -33 degrees Celsius between two ships This took about 2.5 hours and was conducted alongside a new quay at the Maasvlakte 2 APM terminal The demonstration validated the port of Rotterdam safety framework for ammonia bunkering establishing that it is possible to do this safely and without ammonia release in the port Rotterdam is the world’s second largest bunker port with approximately ten million tonnes of fuel bunkered annually the Port of Rotterdam Authority aims to enable the bunkering of all alternative low-carbon fuels in the future promoting greater sustainability for international shipping Ammonia has the advantage of being carbon-free meaning it does not emit CO2 when combusted which shares the same chemical properties as clean ammonia clean ammonia (low carbon) is expected to play a key role in the large-scale decarbonisation of shipping Introduction and upscaling of ammonia as a shipping fuel is also possible because the industry already produces transports and distributes ammonia to end users worldwide The port of Rotterdam uses the international Port Readiness Level assessment tool to prepare for all new marine fuels To properly prepare the port to receive and bunker ships using new fuels various steps will be taken to ensure that all regulatory infrastructural and supply factors are in order The port has already fully implemented this method for LNG and the pilot concludes level 6 and raises the port’s readiness to level 7 with all safety procedures ready to allow bunkering on a project basis the port of Rotterdam is ensuring that it is prepared for bunkering of the first ammonia-fuelled ships The learnings of the pilot and the established procedures will be disseminated to the EU The European MAGPIE programme brings together various ports universities and companies to work jointly on innovation and sustainability This consortium wants to combine the supply and use of green energy in ports and use innovation to increase the efficiency of logistics The programme includes several pilot projects R&D Center Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping is involved in the pilot and will drive the further dissemination of the knowledge and experience gained to the international community MAGPIE has received funding from the European

HON) to implement Honeywell UOP’s eFiningTM methanol-to-jet processing technology in Power2X’s eFuels Rotterdam project -- a large-scale production and storage hub for sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) and synthetic ultra-low carbon fuels in the Port of Rotterdam The Rotterdam facility will use locally produced green hydrogen and imported methanol produced from green hydrogen and biogenic carbon as feedstock to create electrofuels (eFuels) These eFuels are a class of synthetic fuels that can help displace a portion of fossil fuels hydrogen produced from renewable energy and water) and carbon dioxide to create eMethanol which can then be converted into sustainable fuels like eSAF or other synthetic drop-in fuels The project underscores how technology is shaping the future of aviation and the energy transition two megatrends that align with Honeywell’s portfolio "Accelerating the energy transition requires developing next-generation energy assets at an industrial scale and deploying cutting-edge technology to unlock new value chains delivering clean energy where it's most needed,” said Occo Roelofsen “Our collaboration with Honeywell on eFuels Rotterdam marks a significant step forward in producing Sustainable Aviation Fuels in the heart of Europe." The Power2X production facility will have the capacity to produce more than 250,000 tonnes per year of eSAF Honeywell’s eFining technology will play a central role in production enabling the conversion of methanol into eFuels with low emissions and high efficiency "The world needs a greater supply of sustainable aviation fuel in order to help decarbonize the aviation sector," said Barry Glickman vice president and general manager of Sustainable Technology Solutions at Honeywell “Honeywell’s eFining technology uses hydrogen and carbon dioxide to produce SAF that helps airlines meet ambitious European fuel mandates.” Honeywell UOP eFining can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 88% compared to conventional jet fuel.1 When blended with conventional jet fuel eSAF is a drop-in replacement fuel that requires no changes to aircraft technology or fuel infrastructure Europe’s ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation has already mandated the increased use of SAF Power 2X’s facility is a crucial player in Europe’s energy transition as it has the potential to supply 40% of the required eSAF volume when it enters operation around the turn of the decade 1Reduced GHG emissions is based on UOP carbon intensity analysis derived from a 3rd-party study of methanol production from green hydrogen and CO2 captured from biomass processing 2Based on Honeywell licensed feed capacity Sign up to receive exclusive communications about offerings special offers and related topics via telephone email and other forms of electronic communication Copyright © 2025 Honeywell International Inc Anthony Robustiano is ready for a victory lap who has amassed more than a million TikTok followers is currently touring the country and will make a stop in his hometown with a two-show night at Proctors a second show was added after tickets sold out More Nippertown More Schenectady | Newsletter Reach Digital Content Producer Ameara Ditsche at aditsche@dailygazette.net A .gov website belongs to an official government organization in the United States A lock ( ) or https:// means you've safely connected to the .gov website Share sensitive information only on official Learn more about outbreaks of gastrointestinal (GI) illness on cruise ships in the Vessel Sanitation Program's (VSP) jurisdiction including outbreak details and actions taken in response We post outbreaks when they meet both of the following: We may also post other outbreaks of public health significance Find information on GI illness outbreaks in previous years GI illness is a commonly used term for acute gastroenteritis (AGE) Reporting GI illness on cruise ships is important When passengers and crew tell the medical center onboard about their symptoms it helps GI illness outbreaks get detected quickly This allows steps to be taken to limit the spread of illness Medical staff evaluate symptoms to see if they meet our case definition for AGE: Cruise ships are required to report these cases to us Norovirus is often a cause of GI illness outbreaks on cruise ships but we don't always know the cause of the outbreak when we begin an investigation Finding the agent that caused an outbreak (causative agent) can take time people whose symptoms met the case definition are asked to provide stool or vomitus samples These samples are tested to determine the causative agent Sometimes we can't determine the causative agent Learn how passengers can protect themselves with these tips for healthy cruising Read our publication on cruise ship GI illness outbreaks during 2006–2019 The Vessel Sanitation Program helps the cruise ship industry prevent and control the introduction and spread of gastrointestinal illnesses on cruise ships OneFootball's home page Search Settings Sign In Sign InJoinSparta Rotterdam V FC Twente Preview: FC Twente aiming for first win in six against Sparta Rotterdam | OneFootballGet Belgian & Dutch Football News After a dire run of form, manager Joseph Oosting has acknowledged that his Twente side must be much better if they are to attain continental football next season.

investigating the cause of a fire that has resulted in the temporary suspension of processing and production activities at the operator’s 1.4-million tonne/year (tpy) renewable fuels refinery on the Port of Rotterdam in Rotterdam 8 fire was quickly extinguished and did not lead to any injuries but the incident forced the shutdown of operations at the refinery which—based on initial assessments—will remain offline for several weeks The operator said it is actively working to mitigate impacts to the refinery customers but advised deliveries of renewable diesel volumes from the site would be affected during the shutdown period Neste said repair works would begin as soon as possible The early November unplanned shutdown at Rotterdam has resulted in a slight decrease in Neste’s 2024 guidance on its anticipated system-wide renewable product total sales volume which the operator revised downward to about 3.7 million tpy (± 5%) from a previous guidance of 3.9 million tpy (± 5%) The revised guidance reflects the shortfall in renewable diesel production from Rotterdam as the operator’s earlier 2024 guidance on SAF volumes remains unchanged at 335,000-480,000 tpy

CITY SC Metrics details Designing safe and reliable routes is the core of intelligent shipping existing methods for industrial use are inadequate primarily due to the lack of considering company preferences and ship maneuvering characteristics here we introduce a methodological framework that integrates maritime knowledge and autonomous maneuvering model the framework offers customized routes for companies with specific routing preferences The autonomous maneuvering model then evaluates the safety and reliability of the routes by considering ship motion characteristics and ocean hydrodynamics We validate its effectiveness on the world’s longest Green and Digital Shipping Corridor between Singapore and Rotterdam Results demonstrate that our model can provide customized route design for companies and enhance safety for shipping The framework could serve as a fundamental structure to build a fully digitalized platform for route customization and evaluation for global shipping optimizing operational decision-making and safety assurance This gap in research highlights the pressing need for approaches that meet both safety and operational efficiency standards there is currently no related research that is able to design routes with coordination of actual ship maneuvering characteristics To incorporate company-specific preferences and ship maneuverability for modern shipping operations, the present study introduces a model-data dual driven framework that integrates maritime knowledge extracted from AIS data with an autonomous maneuvering model for smart shipping. The framework consists of three stages, as shown in Fig. 1. In Stage 1, data preprocessing is carried out by conducting data cleaning, compression, and extraction to provide high-quality ship trajectories. In Stage 3, an autonomous navigation model is established to test the reliability of the designed route. This model incorporates a ship nonlinear maneuvering model, guidance module, navigation module, and automatic control system. Autonomous maneuvering tests are then conducted, and the resulting maneuvering commands can be applied to ship autopilot or assist in manual operations during real-world navigation while reducing human errors and enhancing navigation safety. “Improved Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise” the model-data dual driven framework offers a more practical solution to maritime shipping by enhancing transportation safety and intelligence The main contributions of our research are: (1) we introduce a knowledge-driven approach for shipping route design by integrating valuable information extracted from AIS data This approach provides advantages over the previous works as it can facilitate customized route design for shipping companies with specific preferences including sailing channels (2) We further provide an autonomous maneuvering digital model of a real ship to verify the shipping safety for the designed route by simulating the ship maneuvering the model incorporates the motion characteristics of real ships providing enhanced safety assurances for maritime shipping Results showcase that the approach demonstrates strong flexibility in customized route design for shipping companies with various preferences as evidenced by the case study of the world’s longest digital corridor between Singapore and Rotterdam We further demonstrate that the autonomous maneuvering model can effectively assess the ship maneuvering performance and collision risk before actual navigation The generated control commands serve as a valuable reference for manual operations by the ship operators This framework serves as a foundational step for future studies on developing more complex digital platforms for intelligent shipping Our research can potentially provide inspiration for the industry on integrating both maritime big data and advanced automatic technology to facilitate route design which is essential to enhance efficiency and safety assurance for maritime transport The objective of this case study is to design two appropriate routes for China Ocean Shipping Company (COSCO the largest shipping company in China) to travel between Singapore and Rotterdam and evaluate the safety and reliability of the routes through maneuvering test The dataset contains global AIS data for container ships covering the entire year of 2021 Readers can access the original dataset or the dataset that has been pre-processed by the authors through the repository link in “Data availability” statement A maritime knowledge base that consists general information (distribution and ship affiliations) and local information (movement patterns and shipping behaviors) is formulated here which will be the main support for route design b show the distribution of flags and companies of all the trajectories traversing between Singapore and Rotterdam; c–f showcase the distribution of Course Over Ground (COG) and Speed Over Ground (SOG) of all the AIS messages; g denotes the visualized AIS messages between Singapore and Rotterdam; h i showcase the distribution of voyage days and average voyage speed of all the trajectories We attribute this phenomenon to longer voyages during Spring during which ships predominantly maintain high-speed sailing ships spend less time sailing at high speeds a Local trajectory set 1; b Local trajectory set 2; c Local trajectory set 3; d Nodes identification and traffic volume of trajectory set 1; e Visualized traffic flows of trajectory set 1 a Shipping routes for the major companies where the blue lines denote the routes starting from Singapore while the red lines are those starting from Rotterdam these are COSCO (China Ocean Shipping Company) and Hapag-Lloyd; b the extracted movement patterns of these companies from the actual trajectories Blue lines represent trajectories departing from Singapore while red lines represent trajectories departing from Rotterdam a Clustering results of the shipping behaviors where the first row shows the clusters of ships departing from Singapore and the second row shows the clusters of ships departing from Rotterdam; b clustering comparison between different methods DBSCAN and DBTCAN stands for “Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise” “Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise” and “Density-Based Trajectory Clustering of Applications with Noise” a Route planning process using maritime knowledge. The implementation details are illustrated in Supplementary Note 2 (Section 3) b Visualized planned route 1; c visualized planned route 2 a Ship trajectory of segment 1; (a1) Zoom-in of ship turning

through the Little Bitter Lake; (b2) Zoom-in of ship entering port of Singapore; (b3) Maneuvering commands and tracking logs of the ship This is because the ship passes through multiple ports along this route the commands generated by our model enable the ship to navigate this segment safely and reliably indicating that these commands can be effectively used for ship navigation in real-world scenarios we observe that various signals are synchronized the rudder angle is strictly controlled within the maximum threshold of 40 degrees Designing safe and reliable routes is of paramount significance for maritime transportation our aim is to present the prospective combination of maritime knowledge and autonomous maneuvering model to facilitate intelligent shipping providing insights for shipping route design and safety assurance for maritime transport Our results demonstrate the framework’s potential to inspire knowledge-based route designs in the shipping industry offering valuable insights for future global maritime operations our maritime knowledge extraction framework efficiently retrieves both general characteristics and detailed insights into movement patterns and shipping behaviors from AIS data The results indicate that shipping behaviors along the same route can vary due to factors such as season shipping route is successfully designed by considering the diverse needs of shipping companies These results highlight the potential of our study to provide professionally customized route designs for shipping companies the framework could serve as an initial step toward establishing a global maritime transportation knowledge base facilitating customized route design between ports worldwide for any institute The results on the autonomous maneuvering test also provide promising inspiration to enhance safety for the maritime transportation industry The autonomous maneuvering model collectively considers the nonlinear hydrodynamic effects and physical characteristics of ship motions We find that the designed route can be carefully evaluated pertaining to the ship maneuvering performance and collision risk using the autonomous maneuvering model The maneuvering commands generated during the test can be applied to ship autopilots or assist in manual operations during real-world navigation These results highlight the effectiveness of our route testing framework in enabling pre-voyage safety assessments providing valuable insights for route decision-makers The framework could serve as a fundamental structure for developing more sophisticated digital platforms for navigation safety testing our work could be extended in several key directions to further enhance its impact on the maritime industry the development of a comprehensive global maritime knowledge base for route customization incorporating diverse factors such as seasonal variations could serve as a valuable resource for both shipping companies and governments the quantitative indicators for route assessment could be further studied Our current model needs thorough theoretical research and a deeper understanding of how companies assess route satisfaction the autonomous maneuvering framework could be further expanded using physical engine technique like Mixed Reality (MR) which provides precise semi-physical models for ships By integrating this framework with a fully digitalized platform shipping companies could simulate and evaluate routes under various conditions these advancements would not only improve operational decision-making but also contribute to the development of intelligent and autonomous maritime transportation systems we explored the integration of maritime knowledge extraction and autonomous maneuvering models to advance intelligent route planning and enhance safety in maritime transportation we developed a framework capable of extracting critical insights into shipping behaviors and operational patterns which can be used to tailor routes based on company preferences and environmental conditions The autonomous maneuvering model further supports pre-voyage safety assessments allowing for comprehensive evaluation of routes in terms of maneuverability and collision risk the following key conclusions can be drawn: The maritime knowledge extraction framework in this study demonstrates strong capability to extract valuable insights from AIS data capturing both general movement patterns and specific shipping behaviors These insights form a foundation for intelligent route design in the maritime industry offering data-driven guidance for more efficient global operations The framework enables route customization according to company preferences considering factors such as departure seasons This approach highlights the potential for creating a global maritime knowledge base that facilitates tailored route design to meet the diverse needs of shipping companies The autonomous maneuvering model enhances route safety by evaluating ship maneuvering performance at pre-voyage stage with practical applications for autopilot systems or manual navigation could further optimize route safety and efficiency advancing the development of intelligent maritime transportation systems we divide the trajectories into segments when the time interval between two consecutive points exceeds a threshold value This threshold is determined by calculating the average variations in sampling time intervals for all trajectories we can extract the all the trajectories starting from the area of Singapore or Rotterdam

Geographic Coordinate Systems (WGS84) Route design is conducted through maritime knowledge that summarizes both general characteristics and detailed insights of the movement patterns and shipping behaviors from AIS data the method can provide customized routes for shipping companies based on historical trajectories and vessel information to meet these requirements We first examine the historical trajectories of the company to ascertain if any meet the specified requirements they are directly considered as design routes In cases where historical trajectories do not meet the requirements we employ the following approach to find the trajectories: Based on the results of general information we identify potential routes meeting criteria such as seasonal considerations utilizing the movement patterns and shipping behaviors we refine the selection to find trajectories satisfying the specific port call requirements Shipping-related pollution decreased but mortality

The abstract artwork will undergo restoration works to repair the scratches I would like to be emailed about offers, events and updates from The Independent. Read our Privacy notice An abstract painting thought to be worth millions of pounds has been damaged by a child at a gallery in the Netherlands The painting “Grey, Orange on Maroon, No. 8” by artist Mark Rothko was housed at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam it appears a young visitor got a little too close to the masterwork and touched it The museum told The Independent the artwork had “sustained superficial damage” which included “small scratches” in the lower part of the painting “Conservation expertise has been sought in the Netherlands and abroad We are currently researching the next steps for the treatment of the painting,” the statement said No information was provided about the possible cost of restoring the artwork and no pictures of the damage were released “We expect that the work will be able to be shown again in the future,” the museum added A spokesperson for the museum told Dutch media outlet Algemeen Dagblad (AD) on Friday that the damage occurred during an “unguarded moment.” The artwork is estimated to be worth up to €50m (£42.5m) While the museum declined to confirm the figure Rothko paintings typically sell for millions at auction In 2012, his painting, “Orange, red, yellow (1961)” sold at Christie’s in New York for $86.9m (£53.8m) another painting was sold for $75.1m (£47.3m) The museum has previously asked visitors to cover the repair costs for artworks they damaged In 2011, a visitor who stepped on Wim T Schippers' “Peanut Butter Platform,” consisting of a 14-meter carpet of peanut butter was asked by the museum to cover restoration costs “It is normal procedure for people to pay if they damage art,” a spokesperson for the museum told AD at the time During the first three months of its display the artwork was accidentally stepped on three times Another Rothko painting was defaced in 2012 while on display in London’s Tate Modern museum “Black on Maroon” was part of a series originally commissioned by the Four Seasons Restaurant in New York a celebrated modernist skyscraper on Park Avenue Artist Wlodzimierz Umaniec vandalised the painting in the name of his Yellowist movement And last year, London’s National Gallery made the “unfortunate decision” to ban liquids in the wake of a spate of attacks by activists on its artworks. “Unfortunately, we have now reached a point where we have been forced to act to protect our visitors, staff and collection,” the National Gallery said in a statement on Thursday. “From 10am on Friday October 18 2024, no liquids can be brought into the National Gallery, except for baby formula, expressed milk and prescription medicines.” It cited paintings including Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflowers, John Constable’s The Hay Wain and Velazquez’s Rokeby Venus among those targeted in “five separate attacks on iconic paintings”.
