  • Method of generating an optimized ship schedule to deliver liquefied natural gas
    Patent number: 10878349
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for generating an optimized ship schedule to deliver liquefied natural gas (LNG) from one or more LNG liquefaction terminals to one or more LNG regasification terminals using a fleet of ships. The method involves modeling the ship schedule via an LNG ship scheduling model and a LNG ship rescheduling model to provide optimized decisions for the LNG supply chain. The LNG supply chain includes the one or more LNG liquefaction terminals, the one or more LNG regasification terminals, and the fleet of ships.
    Type: Grant

  • Intelligent and Interactive System For Routing and Scheduling
    Publication number: 20150178649
    Abstract: A system, including: a memory that stores computer executable instructions; and processing circuitry that executes the instructions in order to, generate a graphical user interface, which includes an intelligent Gantt chart that displays a working schedule of a task assigned to a resource, receive a command to change the working schedule, integrate the change into the working schedule, and update and display a performance metric based on the change.
