Cargo Residue Removal, Hold Washdown, Freshwater Rinse, Drying, Re-Clean Risk, Washwater Handling, Crew Time & Commercial Delay
Dry Bulk Cargo Hold Cleaning Time, Water & Cost Tool
Convert hold area and cleaning productivity into team-hours, water demand and direct cleaning cost. Advanced mode builds the cleaning scope by hold group, then schedules parallel cleaning teams, freshwater rinse, chemicals, washwater/slops handling, drying, expected re-cleaning and the portion of cleaning time that sits on the vessel's commercial critical path.

Cargo Hold Cleaning Register
Re-clean probability × re-clean scope creates an expected additional work factor. Drying time affects inspection readiness but does not occupy the cleaning team after active work is complete.

Cleaning & Cargo-Readiness Controls
Operational planning only: this tool does not decide whether holds are contractually acceptable for the next cargo, whether cargo residues/washwater may be discharged, or whether a particular cleaning chemical/method is safe. Cleanliness acceptance depends on the actual cargo pair, charterparty/voyage instructions, terminal/shipper requirements, IMSBC cargo schedule where applicable, MARPOL Annex V, port rules and inspection.
