 Press Releases

  • Autoship Systems Corporation (ASC) of Vancouver, Canada and their Italian Reseller, Stefano Thermes of Navalia in collaboration with 5K Systems of Italy, are pleased to announce the delivery of over 70 educational licenses. Autoload® On-board and Load Planning Software and Stowage Planning Systems (SPS) will be installed at 10 Marine Technical Institutions in Italy.

    ASC’s On-board and Load Planning software, Autoload is used at all stages of vessel operations. The program reads data from tank, draft, wind and sensors as well as user-input, and then reports on the condition of the vessel. Autoload is often used in conjunction with ASC-developed load planning modules specific to a vessel type, eg. supply, jack-up, bulk, ro-ro, rig, etc.  Ashore, the load planning modules are interfaced with the in-house booking systems and are used to create load plans which are then transmitted back to the vessel thus allowing more optimal loading in shorter time. The ASC educational package includes five models: merchant vessels ro-ro, multipurpose and container, bulk, tanker, and lng.

    ASC’s Stowage Planning Systems (SPS) provide extensive stowage solutions for cargo management activities. SPS can be customized to different levels of management complexity ranging from organizing rig decks or supply vessels to complex Ro-Ro ship cargo placement.

    Located in Genova, Italy, 5Ks are simulation experts in the defense and civil sectors. From design to installation to support they maintain simulators for several Navies around the world and also manage simulators for marine educational facilities.

    Stefano Thermes of Navalia has been an ASC Reseller in Italy and Egypt for over 30 years. Navalia offers marine consulting services in addition to selling and servicing ASC software.

    Product Information:

    Autoload® Offshore is the latest generation of our onboard stability and simulation software. Whether you have a semi-submersible, jack-up, drill ship, TLP, Spar, or other offshore vessel, Autoload Offshore will meet all your loading, stability monitoring and strength requirements. Configured specifically for each rig, platform, or vessel, Autoload’s ability to simulate any current or anticipated loading condition will enable you to quickly verify stability, trim, drafts, and structural strength status.

    Autoload-Jack up version is developed for the specific need for monitoring and simulation of stability and strength both for free floating (transit) condition as well as jacking up / preloading and elevated conditions.

  • Autoship Systems Corporation (ASC) of Vancouver Canada in co-operation with their Project Partner, AMT Marine Software Inc, are pleased to announce the delivery of ASC’s Autoload® Stowage Planning System (SPS) to Liberty Global Logistics of USA for their PC/TC – RO/RO vessels.

    Autoload®-SPS is a state-of-the-art graphical stowage planning system that is integrated with a sophisticated hydrostatic engine and features a seamless link to the company’s centralized cargo-booking database. The software facilitates the expedient planning and loading of each vessel by optimizing the utilization of the ship’s cargo capacity, improving coordination between regional offices and terminals – which helps ensure smooth loading / unloading in ports – and the safety of the vessel with quick and precise hydrostatic evaluations.

    Autoload®-SPS provides extensive stowage solutions for cargo management activities and can be customized to different levels of management complexity ranging from organizing rig decks or supply vessel cargo to complex ro-ro ship cargo placement.

    Headquartered in the US, Liberty Global Logistics is an international transportation and logistics company specializing in moving heavy equipment and rolling cargo using their fleet of Pure Car/Truck Carriers. Services offered include RO/RO, Multi-Purpose, Logistics Management, Management & Operation, Chartering & Leasing and Cargo Support.

  • Autoship Systems Corporation (ASC) of Vancouver, Canada has been developing software solutions for the marine industry for over 40 years. In addition to producing world-class loading instruments and load planning systems for the entire marine shipping industry, ASC also develops a CAD/CAM suite. The suite includes a number of integrated programs, each of which performs specific functions for vessel design and construction.

    Tomay Design of Istanbul, Turkey has been successfully using Autoship Pro (hull design & surface modelling) for hull modelling and its counterpart Autohydro Pro (hydrostatics & stability) in engineering for several major projects for its clients. Projects include a Multi-Purpose Vessel, Oil Spill Recovery Vessel, Oil Product Tanker, Mooring Boat and a Heavy Lift Accommodation Barge which is currently under construction. This powerful CAD/CAM approach speeds up the engineering time from beginning to completion offering higher accuracies of fully faired hulls in Autoship Pro, then better definition of tanks by Autohydro’s Modelmaker. The stability report is then submitted for class approval.

    Tomay’s Founder, Mr. T. Tombak and Lead Naval Architect Mr. B. Kabasakal remarks “We feel fortunate as a naval architecture and engineering office to be using these powerful software tools. As an engineering office we need to compete against other firms to deliver quality engineering drawings both in the bid phase and in the final package of drawings for the client. By using Autoship Pro first to define the hull shape and then a seamless import into Autohydro Pro, we’re working at a high level of efficiency that pleases our growing client list.”

    Boskalis uses Autoload to satisfy their class needs for approved Type 2 and Type 3 loading instrument software. Type 2 software calculates stability and compares against approved MaxVCG curves for intact and damage stability. Type 3 software calculates stability and runs checks on all the design damage stability cases at the current loading state.

    Autoship Systems UK Director, Bill McKinnon said “We are proud to have been selected by Boskalis to supply our Autoload onboard stability software for installation on a part of the Boskalis offshore fleet”.

    Autohydro can also be used to obtain hull form characteristics and capacities. Vessel attitude is displayed graphically and in text on the screen. Report information, text and graphs, can be shown on the screen, edited, printed, saved or exported to other Windows applications.

  • Autoload Onboard Stability and Stowage Planning
    Autoload® is a DNV type approved 3D based onboard stability and strength simulation system. The software covers all aspects of ship-load planning and can be fully integrated into the global information system of the shipping company....

    • Autoload is a robust, intuitive, user-friendly program that offers a simple to understand display of key hydrostatic values that are critical for safe vessel operation. Autoload frees the user to focus on critical decisions while it takes care of the calculations. The base system uses a 3D model and has easy to use controls for weights, tank loads and external forces such as wind. Additional modules can be added for more complex control of weights. The Bay Plan module handles containers, the Deck Plan deals with Ro-Ro cargo and the Crane module simulates the effect of lifting dry and/or immersed cargo with single or double cranes. For every module, the stability and strength parameters are updated as cargo is moved, providing up-to-the-minute guidance on safety and compliance. Autoload can also be connected directly to the fleet’s booking system to import cargo booking and vessel scheduling data. 3D Cargo stowage plans are easily developed in deck plan views. Autoload also connects to the on-board tank sensor system.
