From version 3.22 we have added a feature for dealing with LNG Heel Management. 

Under the LNG tab in the TC contract screens we have added 4 fields for capturing heel quantity and price for both Delivery and Redelivery:

Once added into the contract, the Accounts Receivable (for TC out) and Hire Payable (for TC in) will pick up the amounts to be invoiced.

For TC out contracts the following logic applies:

  • Amounts from TC contract are used until actual figures are available in the LNG performance schedule

  • Actual delivery and redelivery quantities must be captured in the Delivery (DEL) port under the Boil Off Tab in Booking and Operations

For TC in contracts the following logic applies:

  • Use amounts from TC contract until actual figures available in the LNG performance schedule

  • Capture actual delivery quantity on first port on first voyage

  • Capture actual redelivery quantity on last port on last voyage prior to redelivery
