Sailing Speed Optimization Model for Slow Steaming Considering Loss Aversion Mechanism

Table 2

Gains or losses generated by main risk factors of slow steaming.

Risk factorsPotential failure effectsPotential failure mode

Fuel consumptionIncrease operation cost (−)Weight inexperience of risky decision-making in slow steaming operations; improper decision on sailing speed
SOx emissionEmit unnecessary SOx and violate the regulation (−)
Delayed of shipment deliveryVessel delay and decrease customer dissatisfaction (−)
