KinetixPro, a Singaporean technology company, is helping strengthen security at Denmark\u2019s Port Esbjerg, one of Europe\u2019s most important offshore wind hubs and a strategic port for NATO military operations.<\/p>\n

KinetixPro is deploying artificial intelligence and computer vision technology to detect unauthorised activity along the port\u2019s perimeter and at vehicle entrances, according to Singapore\u2019s Maritime and Port Authority (MPA).<\/p>\n

The cooperation was highlighted on 11 November 2026 by MPA Chief Executive Ang Wee Keong during the Smart Port Challenge 2026 Grand Finale in Singapore.<\/p>\n

KinetixPro\u2019s technology works with existing CCTV surveillance systems, using artificial intelligence to identify potential security threats and alert port operators.<\/p>\n

At Port Esbjerg, the system is being used to detect intrusions along the port\u2019s boundaries and identify vehicles entering restricted areas by following authorised vehicles through security gates, a practice known as tailgating.<\/p>\n

According to the Singapore maritime innovation programme PIER71, early results indicate that the technology provides more than 50 times greater visibility into potential security events, allowing port operators to identify threats that might otherwise go unnoticed.<\/p>\n

Protecting a strategically important port<\/h5>\n

Port Esbjerg plays a central role in Europe\u2019s offshore wind industry, handling the shipment of wind turbine components to projects across the North Sea.<\/p>\n

The port also serves as a major logistics hub for NATO military movements between the United States and Europe.<\/p>\n

Its strategic importance has increased in recent years as Denmark and its European partners have invested in infrastructure capable of accommodating larger military transport vessels and offshore wind installation ships.<\/p>\n

The European Investment Bank has provided a \u20ac115 million loan to support the port\u2019s expansion, strengthening both European energy security and defence logistics.<\/p>\n

Singapore technology expands into Europe<\/h5>\n

Founded in 2023, KinetixPro participated in Singapore\u2019s Smart Port Challenge in 2024. The company develops AI-based monitoring systems for ports, industrial facilities and other large operational sites.<\/p>\n

Its technology is already deployed across more than ten countries, according to PIER71, which supports maritime innovation and technology start-ups in Singapore.<\/p>\n

KinetixPro is also establishing a European base in Hamburg through a partnership with Digital Hub Logistics & Commerce.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the Singapore event, Ang Wee Keong presented the company\u2019s expansion as an example of how Singaporean maritime technology businesses can develop solutions for customers around the world.<\/p>\n

The cooperation with Port Esbjerg demonstrates how technology developed in Southeast Asia is finding applications in Europe\u2019s critical infrastructure, including facilities important to both renewable energy and defence.<\/p>\n
