Bunker Planning and also Analytics software program service provider Bunker Metric increases its item profile with Barge Tracker. Getting reliable information on the bunkering supply chain is hard: which shelter barges are running at a port, whom are they supplying to, that is running them, do the barges get here prompt and also various other associated inquiries can be difficult to address specifically, and also input is usually driven by rumours, hear-say and also slim analytical proof.

Bunker Metric intends to transform this by utilizing artificial intelligence and also evidence-based evaluation to tracking shelter barges utilizing AIS and also a variety of various other pertinent information resources to acquire a complete trajectory of any type of shelter barge motions and also their communications with various other vessels or port’s coast centers.
“We have been working on and off on this idea for years but have focused on BunkerPlanner, our fuel procurement optimization product. Now BunkerPlanner has lifted off commercially and at the same time we have strong interest in the BargeTracker from bunkering and shipping industry, so we can dedicate the needed resources to fully mature BargeTracker. We will track +95 % of Barge-Vessel Bunkerings live globally.” claimed Bunker Metric Chief Executive Officer Christian Plum.

Every hr numerous AIS information settings are produced and also absorbing this substantial information collection and also determining the little portion of these which define bunkerings is a substantial job.
Bunker Metric’s Data Scientist James Richardson states: “Not only are we looking for a few needles in a hay-stack, but the needles we are looking for are of many diverse forms and can easily be mistaken for similar looking activities. Having access to vast data sources is just the start, combining it with the experience and insights of industry experts allows us to create bespoke models interpreting bunker barge behaviour in detail, aiming to derive any required information in real time”.

The task has actually gotten to an important maturation, creating important information for consumers obtaining understandings in a bunkering market, as anticipated distribution waiting times, or collecting truths for usage in Claims and alsoDisputes Customers can possibly be any type of star in the bunkering or delivery sector that is searching for strong information on Bunkering tasks -shelter suppliers/traders/brokers, or ports and even shelter customers.
