Reason for call | Tells you the reason for the port call. |
Arrival | Shows you date and time for arrival at the port. |
Departure | Hidden by default. Shows you date and time for departure from the port. |
Draft | Intake draft reduction of the vessel. Lower value increases intake. |
Zone | Sets the vessel DWT that is used in the calculation. |
Water Salinity | One of Saltwater/Brackish Water/Fresh Water. Affects the water density. |
Water Density | Hidden by default. Density of the water at port. Higher value increases intake. |
Bunker reduction (Arriving) | Amount of bunker reduction on arrival in metric tonnes. |
Bunker reduction (Departing) | Amount of bunker reduction on departure in metric tonnes. |
Quantity on board (Arriving) | Amount of cargo on board on arrival in metric tonnes. |
Quantity on board (Departing) | Amount of cargo on board on departure in metric tonnes. |
Safety Margin | Hidden by default. Safety margin for the draft. Default value is 20%. Lower value increases intake. |
Constant Reduction | Hidden by default. Intake constant reduction of the vessel. Lower value increases intake. |

Chart
A mixed chart of the calculation results is generated at the bottom. Each port call has multiple graphs to show the reductions, cargo quantity and quantity available for cargo. The charts gets updated automatically when there are changes to the voyage header, port call, or vessel parameters.
Click on the legends at the top of the chart to toggle the display of a graph. Hover the mouse over the chart to inspect the values of each calculation data point.
Loadline Information
The loadline information table shows data on the voyage vessel that might affect the intake. To change these values, you need to edit the vessel in the Vessels module in master data.
