IMOS On-Prem - About Vessel Consumption Setup

View IMOS Documentation in the Help Center.

This is a Key Topic, with high value for all users.

When calculating fuel consumption in IMOS, a combination of the following is used:

The Fuel Zones form
The Consumption tab on the Vessel form
The Performance tab on the Time Charter (TC) In or Out contract

Vessel location and voyage type both play a role in how consumption is calculated.

Fuel Consumption in ECA Zones

Fuel that has a grade of L (Low Sulfur) on the Vessel form is consumed when the following conditions are met:

The vessel is in a low sulfur (ECA/SECA) zone.
On the Fuel Zones form, a low sulfur fuel type has been selected for that zone.
Daily consumption values for that fuel type are set up in the Vessel form.

Fuel Consumption Everywhere Else

Fuel that has a grade of as G (General Purpose) or H (High Sulfur) on the Vessel form is consumed when a vessel is at sea and outside of a low sulfur (ECA/SECA) zone.

Fuel Consumption Calculation

When the type and amount of fuel consumption are calculated for a vessel outside of an ECA zone, depending on the voyage type, the following information is taken into account:

TC voyages: Consumption information on the Performance tab of the TC contract (information on the Vessel form is disregarded)
- TCOV: Time Charter In
- TCTO: Time Charter In
- OVTO: Time Charter Out
Non-TC voyages: Consumption information on the Vessel form
- OVOV: Vessel form/Head Fixture

Note: If Bunker Expenses for a Voyage Estimate appear as $0.00, it is likely because the appropriate bunker type and grade are not specified on the Vessel form.
