We propose a method for performing autonomous docking of marine vessels using numerical optimal control. The task is framed as a dynamic positioning problem, with the addition of spatial constraints that ensure collision avoidance. The proposed method is an all encompassing procedure for performing both docking, maneuvering, dynamic positioning and control allocation. In addition, we show that the method can be implemented as a real-time MPC-based algorithm on simulation results of a supply vessel.
