Maritime Tools
Quick calculators and decision tools built for routing, fuel, finance, and risk.
Tip: open any tool, change one variable, and watch the economics move
Tools you’ll actually use.
At Ship Universe we build tools that help you estimate real-world maritime costs, risks, and ROI in minutes — not hours.
In 2026 we’re rolling out a bigger tool pipeline and updating what’s here as pricing, assumptions, and regulations shift.
Built-in: Many ShipUniverse reports and news posts include embedded calculators and mini-tools, so you can pressure-test a scenario while you’re reading (fuel, routing, carbon exposure, financing, and more).

Canal Cost Tool
Routing & tolls
Compare canal options against time, distance, and total voyage cost so detours are a numbers decision, not a guess.
Ship Fuel Cost Calculator
Bunkers & consumption
Translate daily consumption and bunker price into voyage fuel spend so you can sanity-check quotes and scenarios fast.
Maritime Decarbonization Calculator
Carbon & compliance
Model carbon-related deltas across pathways so “decarbonization” becomes an actionable cost and tradeoff view.
Shipbreaking ROI Calculator
End-of-life economics
Stress-test scrap timing vs keeping the vessel trading by mapping value, costs, and the “last good voyage” question.
Ship Financing and ROI Calculator
Finance & returns
Turn price, leverage, and earnings assumptions into a clearer return picture for buy, refinance, or fleet expansion calls.
Route Risk Tool
Risk & routing
Quickly frame the risk picture for a proposed routing choice so ops, security, and commercial teams start aligned.
