Capacity Plan

The capacity plan gives you a monthly overview if your fleet is over or under booked with cargoes. For each months and each trade, we compare the available cargoes to the capacity in your fleet which is serving that trade.

To open the Capacity Plan, go to Chartering > Cargoes and select Capacity Plan in the top bar.

Overview

You can navigate between the current month and future months at the top of the dashboard. You also filter to restrict the view to a particular set of trades.

The are three summary cards at the top displaying information on all trades selected in the filter :

  • Free capacity: Total deadweight - total weight

  • Deadweight: Total deadweight of vessels loading in the selected month

  • Weight: Total weight of cargoes with laydays commencement in the selected month.

For free capacity and weight, we distinguish between total values and fixed values. The latter takes only cargoes into account which have status "Clean Fix".
