Getting Started

Tanker Voyages

The Tanker Voyages API provides comprehensive tracking and analysis of vessel voyages for the TANKER market segment (tanker, chemical, LNG, LPG, FSO, and OBO vessels). This REST API enables users to query a paginated list of voyages with a rich set of filters, offering a simpler alternative to the GraphQL endpoint while maintaining powerful filtering capabilities.

A voyage represents a complete journey undertaken by a vessel, including loading and discharge operations, port calls, and associated commodities. Each voyage contains detailed information about the vessel, its route, operational metrics, and cargo details.

Key Features

🆔 Consistent Voyage Identifier – Every voyage now includes a persistent and unique id field, allowing you to reliably track voyage updates over time. This means you no longer need to pull the entire dataset each time you want to analyze or sync voyage data.

🚢 Comprehensive Voyage Data – Access detailed voyage information including vessel specifications, commodities, port calls, and operational metrics such as speed, duration, and draft measurements.

📍 Port Call Tracking – Track loading and discharge operations with detailed location information including zones, ports, berths, and anchorage data.

📦 Commodity Management – Retrieve comprehensive commodity information including intake volumes (metric tonnes, cubic metres, barrels), boil-off volumes, and charterer details.

⏱ Operational Metrics – Analyze voyage performance with metrics such as average speed, top speed, duration, sea duration, and draft ratios.

🎯 Flexible Filtering – Apply filters by:

Voyage type (laden, ballast)
Current voyages only
Cabotage exclusion
Commodities (names, IDs, or groups)
Date ranges (start, end, last updated)
Load and discharge areas (IDs, names, UNLOCODEs)
Vessel specifications (IMO, DWT, LOA, beam, draft, cubic capacity)
Vessel segments (tanker, chemoil, chemical, lpg, lng, fso, obo), types, and sub-types
Fleet names
Predicted voyages inclusion
Ship-to-ship operations (load/discharge STS)

📊 Pagination – Handle large datasets efficiently with cursor-based pagination for structured data retrieval.

🔮 Predicted Voyages – Include predicted voyages in your queries to track future vessel movements and planned operations.

This REST endpoint offers a simpler way to get voyage data compared to the GraphQL endpoint. It is perfect for customers who value ease of use over advanced querying capabilities. The API automatically filters results to the TANKER market segment (tanker, chemoil, chemical, lpg, lng, fso, obo).
