Scope
of Services |
| |
|
Stevedoring
– Stevedoring means all work performed
(On Board Vessel.) It is the process of loading
and unloading cargoes, stowing hatches, compartments
and on deck or open cargo space on board vessel.
(The services related to stevedoring are re-rigging
ship’s gear.) |
|
|
Arrastre
– Arrastre means all work performed
(On Dock.) It is the process of receiving and
loading cargoes from and on to ship’s
tackle, providing mechanical equipment for receiving,
stowing, transporting, shifting, sorting and
piling of cargoes for temporary storage within
the port area. |
|
|
Other
Related Services – Other
related services include: Making fast and letting
go of vessels, shifting cargoes during vessel
operation, opening and closing hatches, stripping
and stuffing of containerized cargoes, bagging
of bulk cargoes, and providing labourers for
“extra jobs” or special request
by the client that are not related to stevedoring
and arrastre services. |
|
| |
Productivity
– Productivity refers to the efficiency
of the operational “gang” in producing
and handling of cargoes over a certain period
of time (hour, day.) Productivity rate is normally
express in metric tons when handling non-containerized
cargoes, and in boxes when handling containerized
cargoes. Productivity rate on non-containerized
cargoes vary according to type of commodities
handled and the type of vessel’s gear
serviced, the same with containerized cargoes. |
|
| |
Productivity
rate is computed at net gang hours, that is
any standby hours caused by rain, vessel gears’
mechanical trouble, and other factors not attributable
to the cargo handler, would be deducted from
gross operating hours. For purposes of determining
the productivity rate on a per day basis, TEFASCO
assumes a “maximum operating hours”
per day, per gang, exclusive of any standby
hours. |

Productivity
– Per Net Gang Hour |
| |
| |
Vessel
with Low Productivity Rate (obsolete ship gears,
very low lifting capacity, very slow boom cycle,
with cargo stowage)
Vessel with Medium Productivity Rate (fast boom
cycle but limited lifting capacity)
Vessel with High Productivity Rate (excellent
ship gears, very high lifting capacity, very
fast boom cycle, and no problems with cargo
stowage)
Productivity rates on non-containerized cargoes
vary according to the following factors:
Vessel’s configuration (hatch opening,
crane/boom safe working load, crane cycle)
Ship’s gear condition
Cargo Stowage
Productivity rate on containerized cargo is
based primarily on the vessel’s crane
performance.
Vessel’s operation is assumed to be at
“maximum 20 hour” per day, under
normal conditions.
Vessel’s operation hours exclude any “standby
hours” caused by rain, vessel mechanical
trouble, non-availability of consignees’
trucks, and other factors not attributable to
the cargo handler. The said standby hours would
be deducted from vessel operation hours to arrive
at the net gang hours in computing the productivity
rate for the day. |
