Tommy Mikkelsen Talks Navigation Resilience on Marine Log's Listen Up! Podcast
Date: 22.07.26
Tommy Mikkelsen, Managing Director, Navigation and Piloting, joined Marine Log Editor in Chief Heather Ervin on the latest episode of Listen Up! to discuss how aging bridge systems, rising vessel traffic and GNSS jamming and spoofing are converging to create new navigation risks for the maritime industry.
In the conversation, Mikkelsen discusses how modernizing navigation equipment is not simply a technology upgrade, but an investment in safety, operational continuity, and long-term resilience. The episode covers practical approaches shipowners, operators and ports can take to strengthen navigation, including modular bridge modernization, strategies for mitigating GNSS interference, and how operators can balance cybersecurity, regulatory compliance and crew workload as they adopt new technologies.
