Optimizing Ship Routing to Maximize Fleet Revenue at Danaos Enver Ellialtıoğlu Ahmet Can Ersöz IE 479
Introduction About Danaos Corporation * Leading international shipowner * Key player with more than 60 containerships * Millions of containers * Millions of miles to thousands of parts * Millions tons of fuel oil
Introduction About ORISMA * Operations Research In Ship Management * Integration of - financial data - hydrodynamic models - weather condition
Introduction Best ship chartering option Optimal Solution Saving Million Dollars
Introduction Defining a Ship Routing Problem ORISMA’s Implementation ORISMA’s Development Demonstration of Results Breakthrough Innovation!!! The path that is followed by researchers:
Problem Definition • Tradeoff between least-cost and faster voyage • Least cost voyage Low speed • Losing operational days • Less oil consumption • Faster voyage High speed • Gaining operational days • More oil consumption
Problem Definition * Objective 1: • Optimization of the ship fleet (minimizing total idle time) -Scheduling -Choosing right voyage -Choosing right crew
Problem Definition • Objective 2: • Fleetwide long-term revenue maximization • Oil consumption(weather conditions, speed, bunkering) • Operational cost at each part(employee, port cost)
Problem Definition * To sum up problems are: • Which voyage, when and through which route? • Bunkering time and ports?
ORISMA’s Development • Routing Cost Minimization • Routing Cost and Time Minimization • Optimal Bunkering • Minimize Idle Time Whenever Next Employment Is Not Fixed
ORISMA’s Implementation Lack of knowledge Resistance to change Lack of motivation Change Management Plan Continous Training(courses, one-to-one sessions)
ORISMA’s Implementation * Fluctuations(Theoretical-Actual) Weight Assignment * Extraction of restricted areas Artificial Module
Realized Benefits Time Savings: $1.3M Fuel Savings: $3.2M 2011:30 Vessels 2012:65 Vessels Profitability: 7-10% Carbon emissions, Safety, Satisfaction
Additional Examples & Questioning No concern about ordering, selling and buying new ship Decision Variables that would be added in an extra formula: *Alvarez, J.
