PORTS & HARBOUR SECURITY

The massive growth of shipping internationally, and the globalization of the container business has brought its own security and threats to Ports & Harbours throughout the world. The threat of attacks on Ports, Naval bases, harbours, oil platforms, terminals, underwater pipelines, shipping and coastal facilities remains a real, and growing concern for all Countries. Terrorist Organizations are now training operatives on diving techniques and the risk of attacks on facilities through diver teams has become a very real threat.

McWhit distributes a wide range of security and defence solutions which can be deployed to both detect and respond to such threats.

Increased threats to Ports & Harbours throughout the world also include the trafficking of people, weapons, explosives and narcotics. McWhit distributes a range of Metal Detectors, Baggage Scanners, Portal Scanners, Mobile X-ray vehicles, and Explosives and Narcotics detection.

We also distribute a range of Turnstiles, Gates, Barriers, Bollards and Rising Vehicle Ramps. As well as Access Control Solutions, including cutting edge ID verification, Biometric Security, and advanced door locking systems, while shipping can be monitored by Radar & Long Range Thermal Camera’s and Ship Security Alert Systems in accordance with SOLAS regulations,

THE PROPOSALEngage in a Build Operate Transfer (BOT) agreement with McWhit Holding (Pty) Ltd; providing:

Port & Harbour security, Perimeter security, Sonar & Radar detection, Implementation of fire,
