PORTS & TERMINALS
We work with the entire port ecosystem - from port authorities, terminal operators, tugs and pilots, to truckers, rail operators and customs authorities.
OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY
50% of all container vessels arrive more than 8 hours late. Many without proper notice.
Optimization at the berth, yard, gate and rail heads; they all start with the vessel ETAs.
Full visibility on vessel arrival times as early and accurately as possible, particularly when they are delayed, allows you to do your job better and faster.
FEATURES FOR YOUR OPERATIONS TEAMS
Berth planning made easier
Ask us for a 21-day, 35-day or 60-day horizon - we’ll build a full plan of vessel arrivals and departures for you, allowing you to anticipate congested periods and plan resources appropriately.
Enable your planning teams to focus on the real value-add, instead of collecting vessel arrival data from agents and updating Excel sheets.
Vessel forecasts
Based on a proprietary algorithm, eeSea Vessel Forecasts track and forecast vessel schedules in real-time, providing continuously-updated ETAs for given ports, vessels, and services.
Coordinate proactively with stakeholders to minimize bunker consumption, GHG emissions, gate and rail waiting times, and yard dwelling times.
Unbiased schedule reliability
Communicate and negotiate with your stakeholders, based on daily updated port events.
Whether you need to know the performance of an individual vessel, service, carrier, or port for the past 12 months, our vessel schedule reliability database provides down-to-the-minute data.
One port community, one data source
Get all the port’s stakeholders onto the same single data view - from port authority and terminal operators, through tugs and pilots, to customs, rail operators, and truck dispatchers.
Let everyone see the same berth plan - and stop sending around Excel files. Consider integrating our vessel forecasts directly into your own Terminal Operating System.
COMMERCIAL RELEVANCE
Your commercial, marketing, and business development teams are constantly looking for new ways to tell your story.
Let us help you with all the data.
So you can focus on your customers, the value proposition, and the message you want to get across.

We keep a tab on all the official throughput and capacity numbers, so you can benchmark with confidence.
Be a digital & transparent port
Communicate in real-time with your importer and exporter communities. You may want to feed transit times, port coverage, schedule reliability, or other numbers directly to your own customer portal.
We offer API’s directly into your systems, so you can provide your customers with transparency and ease-of-use.
“The Halifax Port Authority (HPA) has been using eeSea vessel forecasting and port analytics data for two years.
We have propagated the forecasting data on the Port Operations Centre of our website (an innovation that won the American Association of Port Authorities’ [AAPA] 2019 IT Innovation Award) which provides port customers and service providers with excellent supply chain visibility and predictiveness data that is critical for vessel planning operations and customer service improvement.
The HPA relies on eeSea’s responsive customer service and innovative data delivery tools to help reinforce our value proposition as a consistent, reliable and resilient port.”
