Short description
Just-in-time arrival aims to adjust a ship’s speed so it arrives at port exactly when a berth is available. This reduces waiting time at anchorage and avoids unnecessary high-speed sailing.
What it includes
- Coordination between ship, port, and charterer
- Speed adjustments during the voyage
- Use of arrival time information from ports
Why it matters
Reducing waiting time and unnecessary speed lowers fuel consumption and emissions.
