Route99 is designed for operators in carcarrying and RORO trades

Demo run

for a fleet of 11 RORO vessels trading on twelve different trade routes  illustrates the usage of R99 for fleet scheduling

Various reports generated by Route99:

 

Output reports Input reports
Visual schedule Ship details
Voyage summary Jobs and trade info
Voyage details Vessels open by month
Tonnage budget Vessels open by port area
Position list  
Allocation of jobs  

Screen shots from RORO/Carcarrier demo run:

Ship details
Specification of trade routes: load ports, discharge ports, draft restrictions, time in port etc.
Core voyage estimator: Is used to check certain calculations. Otherwise R99 uses the voyage calculations in an automatic mode to calculate hundreds and thousands of potential schedules before it arrives at a schedule that gives the optimal solution - NB all the time taking into account the various constraints that are imposed by the scheduler
Resulting vessel schedule: For each vessel is listed jobs for voy1, voy 2 etc
Visual schedule: Enables the user to work in visual space by dragging and dropping cargoes between various ships and then check feasibility and economical results
  Input parameters: To control various optimization analysis
  Jobs and cargoes to be lifted: Summary of jobs under various contracts and trade routes with laydays

If vessels are trading in a chartering pool, R99 can generate pool points based on weighting of trade routes, speed/consumption data etc:

Pool point analysis
Graphical presentation of pool points

Feasibility reports

  Feasibility reports shows all feasible combinations of ships and cargoes

Tonnage Balance

R99 allows analysis of tonnage balance: ship days versus cargo days in order to analyse consequences of going long/short on ships and/or cargoes
