Addressing the Challenges of Marine Terminal Scheduling and Demurrage Costs

Managing vessel calls and cargo movements can be a complex, time-consuming task, often leading to excessive vessel alongside time and costly demurrage fees. Inconsistent communication between stakeholders and inefficient planning can result in bottlenecks, delays, and a lack of clarity on vessel scheduling. These issues not only reduce terminal throughput but also drive up operational costs.

With its comprehensive schedule management solution, Mainstay MTO helps teams to proactively address these problems. By providing a single-view berth schedule, it ensures all stakeholders have access to the latest information, minimising miscommunication and keeping operations synchronised. With real-time data and streamlined planning, you can handle every vessel with precision, reduce costly delays, and make faster, informed decisions to optimise terminal throughput and lower costs.
