Tariff system

If a ewex/shipper books capacity for a period of less than 12 months, a tariff system will apply that includes ´monthly factors´. The value of the monthly factor is a percentage of the annual tariff and can be different for each month.

In case of a contract of 12 months or less the tariff for the entire period for which forward transport capacity is booked will be calculated as follows: The sum of the monthly factors for the individual months (which can never exceed 100%) multiplied by the annual tariff, or, if this is lower (81.25% plus 3% times the number of winter months plus 1.5% times the number of shoulder months plus 0.75% times the number of summer months) times the annual tariff.

If a ewex/shipper books capacity for a period of 12 months but, rather than a constant capacity, he books a profile in which the capacity varies from month to month, the monthly factors will apply as well. In that case, the capacity will be divided into horizontal capacity ´ranges´ or ´slices´, whereby the monthly factor system will be applied to each individual range or slice.
