OCEAN CARRIERS

Carriers compete to offer the most suitable products, while simultaneously optimizing their networks and asset utilization.

NETWORK PLANNING &
ASSET UTILIZATION

 

Whether a suitable product means offering the most reliable arrival, the fastest transit time or the cheapest freight rate is in the eye of the beholder.

We offer you neutral and unbiased benchmarking measures for the most important parameters.

FEATURES FOR CARRIERS


 

Schedule reliability

With 50% of all vessels arriving more than 8 hours late, carriers provide different levels of on-time reliability - but their ways of measuring this crucial delivery parameter are often not comparable.

eeSea provides one unbiased ATD and ATA across the industry. The resulting delay versus proforma - measured for departure, arrival, and transit time - is given down to the minute. Carriers ultimately build this neutral, granular benchmark into contracts with their terminal suppliers and customers.


 

Transit times

Transit times are crucial to how carriers differentiate their offerings - and we’ve mapped all the direct port pairs in the liner world for you.

Our liner customers use this constantly updated data set to build competitive networks and port pair offerings, to guide their sales force in the field, to evaluate and respond to cargo tenders, and ultimately to build their on-time performance into BCO contracts.

 

 

Liner networks

Understand your competitors’ liner networks, down to ports and terminals called, berth windows and leg speeds, to gauge your own strengths and weaknesses.

Combined with our detailed vessel assignments, you’ll know exactly which vessels are deployed where and when.


 

Trade lane capacity & blank sailings

The container shipping industry is heavily driven by vessel supply & cargo demand - and eeSea has the supply side covered for you, through our trade lane mapping.

Whether it’s for investment decisions, network changes, competitor monitoring, monthly reporting, or - recently - to get an understanding of the wave of cancelled sailings, our trade lane dashboard helps answer your questions.

 
 

“Having reliable data is a must in Business Intelligence. So working with eeSea has been an outstanding experience: We get continuously updated data from a neutral market source, have direct access to databases, and can flexibly create our own customized reports and dashboards.
