Worldscale Launches

Electronic Freight Schedule

In cooperation with energy infor- mation solutions specialist

Saladin, the Worldscale

Associations in London and New

York have produced an electronic version of the annual tanker freight schedule, dubbed

Worldscaleplus.

The new electronic system will be available as of January 1, 1998, and will contain all the rates and supporting information published in the schedule. Designed to increase the efficiency of retrieving rates, the new Windows-based sys- tem will enable users to retrieve all voyage information, including fixed and variable rate differen- tials and charterers' account items.

Worldscaleplus will enable users to add unpublished rates, user notes and reference tags for commonly used voyages or ports.
