A ship's speed meter for measuring a speed relative to the water of a ship, the ship's speed meter including a wave transmitterfor emitting a sound wave toward a sea bottom, a wave receiverfor detecting a plurality of reflected waves, which are reflected waves of the sound wave having been emitted from the wave transmitter, reflected by a plurality of reflecting objectspositioned at different water depths, and an arithmetic processing unitfor calculating a ship's speed relative to the water of the shipbased on a frequency difference of the sound wave and the reflected wave. The arithmetic processing unitobtains a change rate of a current velocity in a water depth direction by obtaining current velocities at a plurality of different water depths based on a frequency difference between the sound wave and the plurality of reflected waves, and calculates a current velocity at a water depth at which the change rate is smaller than or equal to a threshold value as the ship's speed relative to the water of the ship

Ship speed meter and ship speed measurement method

An acquisition unit acquires weather and marine data indicating a ship voyage schedule that serves as a reference, actual performance data, fuel consumption data, and weather and marine conditions the ship has encountered during a voyage. A time difference data generation unit calculates the difference between the time indicated by the reference data and the time indicated by the actual performance data for each of the journeys between ports. Projected fuel consumption calculation unit calculates projected fuel consumption for each of the journeys between ports based on the reference data, weather and marine data and fuel consumption data. Fuel consumption difference data generation unit calculates the difference between the projected fuel consumption and the actual fuel consumption amount indicated by the actual performance data for each of the journeys between ports.

Device, program and recording medium for supporting analysis of fuel consumption in voyage of ship

A fuel oil information providing server device acquires a reference fuel oil price at bunkering locations on a sailing route specified by a voyage ID input to a terminal device by a user or at which a ship is able to call from the sailing route, and data indicating conditions for correcting the reference fuel oil price, and specifies a fuel oil price obtained by correcting the reference fuel oil price indicated by the acquired data in accordance with the conditions. Fuel oil information providing server device generates display instruction data for instructing that a specified fuel oil price be displayed as a list along with determination rules for a bunkering amount at one or more bunkering locations, and outputs the data to a terminal device that displays information to be used for formulating a bunkering plan.

Data processing device, program, recording medium, and data processing method for assisting formulation of bunkering plan of ship

In connection with a voyage in which a ship visits several ports on a sailing route, when a user inputs a berthing period at each port on the sailing route on a screen in a computer for managing voyage information displayed by a terminal device, the terminal device specifies, with regard to each sectional sailing route between two neighboring ports on the sailing route, fuel consumption rate when the ship sails on the sectional sailing route based on a sailing speed determined by the input berthing periods and parameters of maritime weather conditions under which the ship sails on the sectional sailing route. The terminal device calculates fuel consumption required for sailing on each sectional sailing route and total fuel consumption required for sailing the entire sailing route using the specified fuel consumption rates.

Device, program, recording medium and method for facilitating management of schedule of voyage

A ship assignment device acquires voyage schedule information including an operation time schedule and a sailing route of a voyage. The ship assignment device acquires, from a database, weather information related to the operation time schedule and the sailing route included in the schedule information. The ship assignment device acquires information regarding variations in fuel consumption rate from a database that stores the information for each of plural ships. On the basis of the acquired weather information and acquired information regarding each ship, the ship assignment device calculates the fuel consumption for when each ship sails on the sailing route included in the acquired voyage schedule information in accordance with the operation time schedule included in the voyage schedule information. On the basis of the calculation result, the ship assignment device outputs information identifying plural ships.
