IMOS - Speed Comparison Analysis

Home > Chartering > Speed Comparison Analysis

When creating an Estimate, the Speed Comparison Analysis calculates how alternative ballast/laden speeds affect voyage results.

After specifying Ballast and Laden speeds, the following values are calculated for each set of speeds: Profit, TCE, Daily Profit, Bunker Expenses, and Voyage Days.

• CO2 (MT): Calculates CO₂ emitted. If a fuel's CO2 Factor is ≤ 1.0000 or empty, the CO2 (MT) column will not calculate and will appear light red.

  • CO₂ emissions are calculated by multiplying bunkers consumed by their associated CO2 Factors for the designated voyage leg. If multiple grades of bunkers are consumed, your CO₂ emissions will show the joint value of all CO₂ emissions for the associated voyage leg.

• For Type G (Gas Carrier) vessels, monthly TCE appears instead of daily TCE.

• Daily Cost: Defaults to the value of Dly Cost in the Estimate. For more information, see How is Daily Cost determined on the Speed Comparison Analysis form?

  • To recalculate P&L figures in the table, enter a new Daily Cost value.

  • To reset Daily Cost to its default value, clear the field.

• Wait for Laycan: Select to have idle days added at the first load port in an Estimate if the vessel arrives before the start of laycan. The Waiting Days column shows early/late days when this check box is selected.

• Clear: Clears all the lines in the form.

• Generate From Vessel Speeds: Populates all the possible combinations of speeds that are specified on the Vessel form.

• To sort by a column, click its heading; data is sorted in descending order. To change the sort order, click the heading again.
