IMOS - Deviation TCE

The “Deviation TCE” feature allows for the calculation of a “round trip” scenario within an estimate, factoring in a ballast or/and a repositioning leg. The “Deviation TCE” option is intended only for regular estimates where the Deviation Ports, defined in the system, will appear in these estimates only when certain vessel type and port area conditions are met.

When the checkbox is selected, the estimate cannot be scheduled, and the deviation ports will be excluded from the voyage.

Condition 1:

The vessel type used in the regular estimate must be one that has defined Deviation Ports in the system settings (Data Center > Deviation Ports).

For example, vessel ‘VESON’ is a ‘BULK CARRIER’ type for which the Deviation ports are defined as below.

Condition 2:

The ports included in the regular estimate must fall within the Port Areas specified in the 'Deviation Ports' settings.

For example in the below estimate for vessel ‘VESON’, port Shenzhen and port Kandla belong to CHINA and India port areas respectively.

If the two previous conditions are met, selecting the "Deviation TCE" option will incorporate the relevant deviation ports into the estimate.

This is not to be confused with "Deviation Estimates" which allow clients to duplicate an active voyage to assess the P&L impact of deviating from the current voyage plan. It provides a way to modify the connected voyage by adding cargo contracts, enabling clients to evaluate whether the proposed deviation would be beneficial.
