The Reference Point for European Inland Freight
For over three decades, our freight rate and bunker price assessments have served as a recognized reference for the European inland tanker market. Built on a transparent methodology and IOSCO-certified framework, BargeInsights delivers pricing intelligence accepted across the supply chain.
All Relevant Market Intelligence in One Platform
Freight rates, vessel movements, Rhine flows, water levels and congestion indicators are integrated into one platform. Instead of navigating disconnected datasets, you operate from one coherent market view.
Foresight into Barge Transport Capacity Constraints
Water levels influence depth and loading capacity for barges. Low Rhine water levels also ties up more barge capacity leading to less available barge supply. BargeInsights provides forecasts for Rhine water levels up to 14 days into the future. This information can be used to anticipate loading restrictions for individual voyages and provides a market indicator for freight rates.
Anticipate Laytime and Demurrage Applicable to Voyages
Realtime data on waiting times, terminal visit durations, and berth occupancies enable anticipation of laytime and demurrage. This information is vital when evaluating logistical risks and negotiating terms and conditions for barge transports.
