Peel Ports Great Yarmouth is a modern, multi-purpose port, based in Norfolk, UK. The port integrates a new, deep-water outer harbour, as well as a well-established river port that serves the Oil and Gas fields of the southern North Sea. Port operators decided to have a comprehensive security monitoring solution in place in order to safeguard cargo, infrastructure and people. Using Flir’s network-based video management solution (VMS), the port is now able to meet the needs of today’s demands, as well as tomorrow’s business growth.

All camera video streams needed to be fed into a central control room, and further scaling of the camera network within the town of Great Yarmouth was needed. The video surveillance solution used Flir’s Quasar Quad HD cameras and older analogue cameras, coupled with video encoders from Flir, offering Peel Ports many options to efficiently secure the harbour area.

"The task Check Your Security faced was to provide a fully integrated and comprehensive video surveillance system in a coastal port environment that is both harsh and demanding,” said Richard Musgrove, Harbour Master at Peel Ports Great Yarmouth. “Check Your Security offered a solution that met our challenging operational requirements, resulting in Peel Ports Great Yarmouth managing a robust, reliable and scalable system for today and for the harbour’s future growth."
