BPS Distance Table


Port To Port has been developed to be a highly functional tool for obtaining marine distance and routing information . The software is developed around the latest version of the world renowned BP Shipping Marine Distance Tables.

Port To Port is currently supplied in two versions, Professional and Standard. Both versions are covered by this help system, where functionality is limited to the Professional edition the relevant topic is appropriately annotated.

Obtaining a distance between two ports is simplicity itself, enter the first few characters of the departure port, repeat the process for the destination port and press RETURN.

However, the functionality of the software goes far beyond that. Once a distance has been calculated, the route is displayed on the map and can be easily changed to avoid any locations that have been used. Furthermore, building a route that goes via a specific location is just as easy.

Having calculated a route either between just two ports, or for a complex voyage involving multiple load and/or discharge ports, in the Professional edition, the details can be added to the Voyage Planner where port delays/in port time can be introduced, speeds varied for individual legs of the voyage and bunker details edited and reviewed.

All of this functionality is fully explained in this help file which should assist you in getting the most out the system.

Whilst the routes used in the compilation of the distances supplied by this software have been developed by experienced mariners, and every care has been taken to ensure the routes are navigable, the software is NOT TO BE USED FOR NAVIGATION.
