1. Ship space allocation
Stowage must consider the safety of the ship, loading regulations, port sequence, special container stowage, the location of light and heavy containers, return cargo space, draft and stability, smooth site operations, whether the left and right rods are deflected, whether multi-head operations are possible, and reasonable allocation of each The quay crane operation volume should try to avoid the occurrence of key heads. If there are too many boxes in the key heads and it is impossible to complete the ship within the established window time, the ship should be communicated with the shipping company in advance to adjust the number of boxes in the key heads.
The reserved loading position should not affect the operation as much as possible and should be kept on the deck as much as possible. If the deck is not loaded with cargo, consider staying on the top level of the cabin to avoid loading in the cabin as much as possible.

The system will verify whether the attributes of the box number are the same as those of the loading mark, and whether the quay crane operation sequence is assigned, otherwise the operation will not be successful. You can also right-click the box number that has been assigned to the cabin to remove it from the cabin. But the loading mark will not disappear.
Business: When assembling boxes manually, we must follow the principle of focusing on the bottom and focusing on the top, and balancing the left and right. The longitudinal weight distribution of the ship should ensure that it is slightly heavier in the middle and lighter at both ends. For fully loaded ships, the draft should be as flat as possible. For lightly loaded ships, the bow should be slightly heavier to prevent bowing. Understand the weight limit on the inner deck and do not exceed the load.
13.3 Adjust loading
Operation: Same as manual stowage. However, the system does not verify whether its loading attributes match and whether there is a quay crane operation sequence. Right-click Cancel to cancel the loading mark.
Operation: When distributing a container at a location where there is no loading space or no quay crane operation sequence assigned, the "Generate Operation Sequence" dialog box will pop up. Select the operating quay crane, and the system will automatically generate the operation sequence of this container as the current operation sequence of the selected quay crane. The last job sequence number.
14. Schedule delivery
Action: Click the "Send Plan" button. The sending schedule window pops up. Select the quay crane operation sequence you wish to send. The operation is similar to "auto-stowage".
Business: After the plan is successfully sent, notify Central Control Ship Adjustment and extract the operation plan.
2. Shipping company space allocation principles
The allocation of seats generally follows the principles of convenience and safety; generally, the right seat in the rear row is the seat of honor because it is safe and convenient to get in and out of the car, followed by the left seat in the rear row, and then the passenger seat. But there are also special times when the owner drives the car himself. To show respect for the owner, the passenger seat is the seat of honor.
3. Principles of ship space allocation
The 13-hour "Putuo Island" ship from Dalian can carry 1,428 passengers. The ship is divided into special class, first class, second class A, second class B, third class A, third class B and fourth class. There are a total of 7 classes of cabins. The highest basic fare for the special class cabin is 1,580 yuan for one person per room. The cheapest fourth class cabin for eight persons per room has a basic fare of 380 yuan.
4. What does available space on a ship mean?
The floodable length at a certain point within the length of the ship's length means: when a cabin with the floodable length centered on the ship's length is damaged under the same permeability conditions, the ship will sink and trim just enough to avoid flooding the limit line. This limit line refers to a horizontal line parallel to 76mm below the bulkhead deck edge line.
The floodable length is derived from the floodable length curve, which is calculated from the ship's line drawing.
The permitted length is calculated by multiplying the floodable length by the subdivision factor. Permitted compartment length is a limit on the maximum length of a ship's subdivisions.
5. Ship space allocation ratio
It means sharing a cabin. For example, MSC and CMA ships take the same route. Assuming that CMA does not have a ship, it purchases the space on the MSC shipping company's ship to collect cargo. There is an agreement between them. Of course, although the ship used is MSC's ship, the container is still CMA's own container, and the bill of lading issued is still CMA's bill of lading. This is a shared cabin.
MSC is currently the second largest shipping company in the world.
Full name Mediterranean Shipping Company,
The name MSC is formed from the abbreviation of the first letters of each English word.
It is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, and its boss is Italian.
The company is a private family business and currently ranks first in the world in terms of ship ownership.
Ranked second in the world in terms of container ownership and space ownership
Overall strength ranks second in the world, second only to Denmark’s Maersk Line
6. Ship space distribution
The fact that containers have space means that they will be exposed to SOC/COC space during container shipping or block train transportation, and the space fees charged are different depending on the space.
We need to understand that in international shipping, in addition to ship owners, there are also container owners. Needless to say, ship owners refer to the people who own the ship, generally referring to the shipping company.
The owner of the container refers to the owner of the container, also called the container owner, that is, the owner.

8. How big is one cabin on the ship?
To describe the seats in the front cabin, it is equivalent to the seats in the overall cabin. If this is a passenger ship, then the people in front are equivalent to sitting in the front cabin of the passenger ship. In other words, if these people They can see the scenery ahead through the transparent windows. They can see the scenery ahead through the glass windows on the ship.
9. Principles of layout of ship’s engine room
The safety cabins of ships are generally relatively secretive, and some even have camouflaged entrances and exits. Most of them are located in a corner space in the engine room or the steering gear room. It is equipped with fresh water, compressed biscuits, external monitoring monitors, satellite phones, etc., which can support the life of the entire crew for several days to facilitate contact with the outside and wait for rescue by external forces.
10. Ship space allocation rules
What is liquidation? Liquidation refers to the situation where the shipping company receives goods along the route and exceeds the maximum loading capacity; the most direct is that some containers cannot be boarded on the ship, or it may also occur at the transit port (leaving some containers on the way). Waiting for the next boat to take it away at the port). In the case of a warehouse explosion, there may also be a problem of loading but no container equipment.Generally speaking, during the peak shipping season, it is necessary to lock in space in time and choose reliable cargo that has good cooperation with shipping companies.
There are generally two types of liquidation:
1. The volume of the cargo is greater than the cargo capacity of the ship.
2. The weight of the cargo is greater than the cargo weight of the ship.
Common reasons why it happens:
1. Peak shipping season;
2. The new tax rebate policy leads to stock shortage;
3. Shipping companies collectively reduce the supply of ship space;
4. The shipping company allocates shipping space to other ports;
5. Decrease in cargo carrying capacity of ships due to tides, etc.
Consequences:
1. In order to ensure shipment, the cargo owner can only add freight or find an acquaintance to guarantee shipping space;
2. There must be cargo owners who cannot get shipping space and are dumped, which affects the trade contract;
3. Some goods may be damaged because they cannot be shipped in time;
4. Goods that cannot be shipped in time may incur additional local fees, such as demurrage fees, storage fees, etc.
How to avoid:
1. Avoid shipping during peak seasons;
2. Don’t worry too much about shipping costs;
3. Maintain relationships with shipping companies;
4. Maintain relationships with multiple shipping companies and increase shipping channels;
5. As a shipping company, during the peak season, you can choose to increase freight or increase the supply of space, and rationally allocate space and stowage, etc.
Expanded information: What is a shipping clause? A shipping clause is a basic clause in a ship insurance contract. Our country refers to international marine insurance practices and also stipulates clauses in ship insurance clauses.
Its main purpose is to require the insured ship not to engage in maritime towing or rescue services; not to directly load and unload cargo at sea with other ships (non-port or coastal small ships), including approaching, docking and leaving; the insured ship is prohibited from engaging in scrapping Ship or voyage for the purpose of scrapping and sale.
Within this limit, unless the insured obtains the consent of the insurer in advance and accepts the revised insurance conditions and pays the required premium, or insures a separate voyage for the purpose of breaking the ship or selling the ship for breaking. When insuring, the insurer assumes the insurance liability. Otherwise, the insurer will not be responsible for the resulting losses and liability to third parties.
