The University of Queensland has joined forces with Brisbane, Australia's largest multi-cargo port, for a $2 million research project to develop new port-related engineering solutions. The three-year Port of Brisbane project will focus on channel deepening, land reclamation and other port activities. Under the venture, the University and the Port of Brisbane will each provide $1 million to improve Queensland's port-related technology, and work together on research and development of the port's land reclamation and shipping channel optimisation strategies. A similar engagement already occurred in a successful channel-deepening trial in northern Moreton Bay, where researchers played a key role in enabling geotechnical and environmental issues surrounding the dredging to be overcome. The port's subsequent ability to bring larger container vessels through the channel produced identifiable increase in capacity.
