Optimizes tanker fleet scheduling and cargo delivery to maximize profits and minimize operational costs.

Opti-Tanker optimizes tanker fleet scheduling and cargo delivery more comprehensively than manual planning or less sophisticated systems by considering over 50,000 variables and various port and vessel constraints. The software maximizes the utilization of time or spot chartered and owned vessels and minimizes the costs of vessel operations through smart scheduling. It schedules vessels to match oil deliveries from load to demand locations, satisfying varying demand of oil products despite demand volatility. Opti-Tanker assists planners in smarter vessel scheduling, ensures cargo demand satisfaction, and accounts for all port and vessel constraints. This results in optimal utilization of the tanker fleet, reduction in time and costs, and higher ROI. The tool offers scheduling capabilities for 30 to 90 days and 90 to 180 days, handling 10+ vessels, 2 load ports, 7 discharge ports, and multiple grades. It also provides optimal utilization of terminal/loading jetty, ensures satisfaction of load side annual contract limits, and allows choosing alternative load sites in case of production shortfall. The system identifies the number, type, and size of tanker vessels for time or spot charter, matching them with constraints at load and discharge ports. It also supports optimal utilization of oil terminals/jetty infrastructure, supplying forecasted demand of multiple grades at discharge ports with congestion and berthing window constraints, and offers the option to choose ship-to-ship transfer. The solution is cloud-based, offered as Software as a Service (SaaS) with a subscription-based service, data integration via REST API, and an ETL platform for data export and transformation, secured with HTTPS.
