ChemStow Planning Modules
Planning is more than simply stowing a cargo in a tank. Planning includes stowing a cargo in a tank and determining the effects of that cargo at that particular loading port and all future loading ports, since carrying one cargo can have a domino effect in the future. The planning module within SafeNet ChemSTOW allows the user to develop many different scenarios and decide which one to actually use upon arrival.
SafeNet ChemSTOW planning modules meets the -needs of users:
- Plans can be arranged by either technical office or ship personnel
- Plans can be created for any port, no matter bow far into the future
- Multiple plans are allowed at every port
- Planning module accounts for cargo currently on-board as well as planned cargo in the future
- Proper planning allows for the optimization of available space onboard the vessel
- Automatic checking of regulatory requirements ensures compliance
- Compatibility checks are made in the following areas:
- Certificate of fitness acceptability
- Adjacency to reactive cargoes
- Heating of adjacent cargoes
- Coating resistance with respect to parcel to be stowed
- Coating condition
- Previous cargo requirements
- Connectivity of cargo tanks
- Volume/allowable weight in tank - The effect of changing the Port rotation on your planned cargoes is determined at the current port and at future ports
- Detailed load reports for various plans
- Suitable tanks are found for a varied cargo to aid in stowage decision
- Stability calculations are integrated into the planning module
