Status Quo 2008- analyses of empirical data Sample Clauses

Status Quo 2008- analyses of empirical data. The current maritime distribution at NorStone, the way we see it, seems to be characterized by manual planning, a lot of reorganization and a great desire of maintaining superior customer service, despite the cost of sub optimizing their routing problems. Our impression is that the mix of reaching for a high service level (through minimum delivery- time) and manual planning, leads to a stressful and inflexible situation, which most likely generates uneconomical solutions. The annual vessel report for 2008 describes the current situation and exposes a high average fill-rate, some multiple pickups and none or an insignificant amount of backhauls. We have calculated the fill rate and developed an overview that describes both average and individual fill-rate for each vessel. These findings are based on annual figures and don’t include backhauls. Backhauls are under evaluation, the Møreforskning/NorStone project are working on estimating the potential savings by better utilization of backhauls. However, at present time this work is not completed, therefore we do not have a basis for implementing it in our model. Table 2.3 is an annual overview that illustrates the rates of effectiveness and the applications of a specific selection of vessels, both individual and compared towards the total. This selection constitutes 24 of 44 vessels and is based on the share of freighted tonnage or the number of shipments and during 2008. The mix of contract types is determined by the charterer at NorStone. Table 2.3 is based on data analyses from 2008 illustrating, among others, the fill-rate of each vessel. This figure corresponds with the “economy of scale” principal, meaning that most shipments are executed by vessels on TC or COA- contracts. If the SPOT market is applied, these vessels are only executed for one or two shipments during the whole month. In total, approximately 1.9 million tdw were distributed along the western coast of Norway during the whole year. Altogether, 1577 shipments between production sites and customers/terminals were executed, with an average freight equal to 1493 tons. In order to fulfill customers’ needs, XxxXxxxx hired 44 different vessels from local ship-owners. Most vessels were hired trough the SPOT market; still, these vessels distributed less than 10 % of the total tonnage. Some vessels had a fill rate below 90 %, which probably is unprofitable and can be viewed as a potential for improvement. In total, the average fill- rate was close to ...
