IMOS - Shuttle Freight Breakdown


NoteConfiguration flag CFGEnableShuttleFreightInvoicing must be enabled.

The Shuttle Freight Breakdown form is part of the Shuttle Tanker Workflow and shows the components of shuttle tanker freight.

To access it, on a Cargo COAVC In COACargo, or VC In contract, do either of the following:

  • Set Freight Type to S.
  • If Freight Type is already set to S, click the Total Freight field label.

The form automatically populates based on the following:

  • Actual Hire
    • Daily Rate: Actual freight, as defined on the COA or Cargo/VC In Pricing tab.
    • Duration: The duration of the voyage during which the cargo is handled.*
    • Total = Daily Rate × Duration
  • Return Hire
    • Daily Rate: The agreed Rate from Agreed Transit Time and Rates.
    • DurationThe agreed Days from Agreed Transit Time and RatesReturn Duration is the duration of the theoretical voyage during which a cargo would be handled,* if the vessel were to return that cargo to its load port. This theoretical return voyage does not actually take place but serves as a method of pricing the cargo. 
    • Total = Daily Rate × Duration
  • Bunkers
    • Actual Qty/Cost: The bunkers consumed for the duration of the voyage during which the cargo is handled,* priced according to the queue determined by your Bunker Calculation Method. The bunker ROB values at the NR and HF Port Activities come from the event ROBs entered on the ROBs tab.
    • Return Qty/Cost: The Quantity and cost of the Fuel Type consumed from Agreed Transit Bunkers. The bunkers that would be consumed over the duration of the theoretical voyage during which a cargo would be handled,* if the vessel were to return that cargo to its load port. This theoretical return voyage does not actually take place but serves as a method of pricing the cargo.
  • Total: The combined cost of actual and return hire and bunkers. This value appears as Total Freight on the contract.

*The duration of the voyage during which the cargo is handled is defined as the time between the NR Port Activity at the cargo's first load port and the HF Port Activity at the cargo's last discharge port. If that data doesn't exist yet (such as on Scheduled/Commenced voyages or Voyage Estimates), the ETA at the cargo's first load port and ETD at the cargo's last discharge port are used as placeholders.
