HLM Terminal

Read full description

HLM Terminal puts the day's port operations in your pocket. Built for terminal staff, agents, mooring companies and tug operators, it brings the vessel forecast, berth occupancy and service orders together in one fast mobile view. THE VESSEL FORECAST AT A GLANCE See arrivals, departures and shifting movements with ETA and planned ETA, route, agent, terminal and passage times. Filter by terminal, agent, vessel name, IMO or date range, choose the stage columns you care about, and sort the list the way you work. BERTH OCCUPANCY Check which vessels are lying at the harbour berths right now, with IMO, GT, terminal, area and meter mark. PILOTS, TUGS AND MOORING Every movement shows its assigned pilots, tugs and moorers, each with confirmed or pending status. SERVICE ORDERS Order mooring services straight from a vessel's entry, add order remarks and additional services, and follow the status from requested through to accepted or declined. Mooring and tug companies can claim available jobs, enter how many tugs they provide, and mark an assignment as confirmed. LIVE TRACKING AND WIDGETS Follow a vessel's approach on the live map, keep a movement on your Lock Screen with a Live Activity, and add the forecast widget to your Home Screen to see the next movements without opening the app. NOTES THAT STAY WITH THE VESSEL Leave public or private notes on a vessel. They stay with the vessel across port calls instead of disappearing with a single call. FAVOURITES AND NOTIFICATIONS Mark the vessels that matter to you by IMO number, and get notified when a vessel's position changes or shortly before it arrives. MADE TO BE COMFORTABLE Face ID and Touch ID sign-in, light and dark themes, and the full interface in English, German and Arabic. HLM Terminal is a professional tool for authorised port users. An account from your organisation is required to sign in.
