Top-10 container line - voyage fuel optimization

Predicting fuel consumption across a global fleet under variable weather, cargo, and vessel conditions

Top-10 container line - voyage fuel optimization

The challenge

A major shipping company struggled with unpredictable fuel consumption across their fleet, leading to budget overruns and inefficient route planning. Weather conditions, cargo weight, and vessel performance variations made manual predictions unreliable, and the 68% baseline accuracy left operators unable to commit to bunker decisions or route changes with confidence.

What we built

We developed an AI system that analyzes historical voyage data, weather patterns, vessel specifications, and real-time conditions to predict fuel consumption with 94% accuracy. The system provides actionable recommendations for optimal speed and routing on every leg, integrating with the existing fleet management stack.
