| Summary: | The paper considers the vessels operating on carriages of bulk cargoes to get the maximum profit for the shipowner as his main goal. The items in search are the long-term contracts of affreightment with some clauses indicated as indeterminate values, that can be described using a range of values. It leads to a range of voyage indicators. The vessels’ deployment for getting the maximum profit depends on the market situation that is to say possible changes in vessels' time-charter rates and freight rates. This paper presents the mathematical model, based on the fleet and volumes of carriages under a set of contracts of affreightment during the due time. It includes the necessity for the commitment fulfilment by owned and time-chartered vessels and takes into account possible changes in freight rates for cargoes carriages. The presented numerical example demonstrates the opportunity for practical implementation of the model. |
