Bearing AI unveils advanced deployment planner for optimizing Tramp shipping operations
Building on the success of its Deployment Planner for liner shipping companies, Bearing AI has unveiled a suite of powerful new features tailored specifically for tramp shipping companies.
Unlike liner operators, tramp shipping companies manage one-time contracts between specific loading and discharge ports, creating unique challenges in balancing emissions performance with profitability.
The updated Deployment Planner for tramp shipping directly addresses these complexities. Leveraging advanced AI models, it processes vast amounts of historical and real-time data to deliver actionable insights for tackling critical operational issues.
Key features include instant insights into the environmental impact of upcoming contracts, enabling chartering, operations, and environmental teams to test and compare vessel deployment scenarios for optimal outcomes.
Powered by sophisticated machine learning, the Deployment Planner forecasts end-of-year (EOY) performance for every vessel in a fleet, even during unscheduled periods. These predictions provide unparalleled visibility into emissions, empowering tramp operators to enhance both environmental and financial performance despite constantly shifting schedules.
The Deployment Planner supports tramp operators in navigating the challenges of variable contracts and clients through:
Accurate EOY Predictions: Offering realistic emissions forecasts based on vessel-specific historical data, even during uncontracted future periods.
Strategic Vessel Deployment: Optimizing deployment strategies by evaluating routes, fuel efficiency, and regulatory compliance, enabling operators to align environmental goals with business priorities.
Advanced Emissions Management: Providing emissions forecasts for various deployment scenarios, helping operators select routes and schedules that minimize environmental impact while adhering to global regulations.
Enhanced Cost Efficiency: Simulating operational strategies to identify the most economical deployments in a sector characterized by fluctuating contract terms and destinations.
“Tramp shipping companies face a distinctly different set of operational challenges compared to their liner counterparts. Our new Deployment Planner is designed to provide the same level of precise, real-time insights for tramp operators, ensuring they can make informed decisions that maximize both efficiency and sustainability, regardless of the variability in their contracts,” commented Kristofer Maanum, Senior Product Leader at Bearing AI.
