Several large terminal operators and shipping lines have therefore started using a telefax service for transmitting alf necessary data and loading plans within a short time to the next loading/discharging port. Certain operators with, a central planning office are using coded telex sets which are sent to the various ports and transfer stations; they are comparable to the advanced telex information system used by the railroad. Other operators have recently equipped their vessels with mini-computers for calculating the various moments, trim and stability prior to and upon completion of the loading/dischargingoperation. 菲 Copyright Intemational Organization for Standardization No reproduction or networking permited withou license from IHS Not fr Resale
