WxVet Analysis: Wind Velocity & Significant Wave Height
We evaluate the accuracy of ship-reported weather by comparing it with hindcast data, identifying exaggerations and determining the environmental correction needed.

KPI Analysis: Segmenting the Voyage
Refined data is used to segment the voyage and detect trends in operating conditions. KPIs — including engine speed (Veng/RPM), SOG, STW, CF, and Slip — are plotted to identify credible performance points.

Power Curve Comparison: Clean Hull vs Achieved
Performance points from Step 2 are mapped onto engine-specific power-speed curves. These are then compared with clean hull benchmarks to evaluate if the expected performance was met.

Summary & Report Output
We provide a clear summary of the deviation. Warranted versus observed speed and consumption are tabulated — with any shortfall or excess highlighted — enabling precise calculation of damages or rebuttal of deductions.

Users can quickly assess whether there are valid reasons to expect the vessel to achieve warranted performance, based on observable metrics rather than subjective interpretations.

Who is this for?
Owners and charterers to assess claims internally before escalation.
Consultants and legal teams to provide transparent, evidence-based submissions.
Arbitrators to evaluate claims without depending exclusively on expert reports and/or WRC reports.
WRCs (under license) to supplement/complement their own reports.

What is the Reasonable Grounds Model (RGM)?
The Reasonable Grounds Model is an evidence-based methodology for assessing ship performance under time charters. It moves beyond outdated “good weather” testing to comprehensively analyse the whole voyage, grounded in verified data and legal standards.
