Aries Marine provides Specialized Ship Loading Software which provides an integrated and user-friendly system for load planning and loading calculations offering numerous functions and facilities for safe and efficient ship operation.
The Loading Software provides a wide range of modules for onboard and office use. It designed to operate within an interactive graphical environment. The user always works on the actual vessel plan, screens are self-explanatory, have a consistent format and provide quick access to the information required to perform a given task. It is suitable for use onboard, as well as in office as a standalone system.
The Ship Loading Software is type approved by all major Classification Societies. The Loading Software itself offers a variety of modules. In addition to Statutory Requirements, a wide range of ship operator needs and safety aspects (e.g. Emergency Response) are covered. Specialized versions are available for all ship types, handling aspects specific to each ship type.
