“PortVision’s TerminalSmart platform is expected to bring important capabilities to our business operations,” said Dave Chalson, Sunoco Logistics’ vice president of operations.

“It is anticipated that this product will help our marine transportation managers improve scheduling, vetting, logistics, loss control and demurrage management, and streamline and enhance activities associated with front-line dock activities and dock management.”

Sunoco Logistics will be deploying the TerminalSmart platform at multiple terminals throughout the U.S. “We are pleased that Sunoco has selected TerminalSmart for its busy U.S. terminal operations,” said Dean Rosenberg, PortVision chief executive officer.

“Sunoco Logistics is widely regarded as having among the most efficient and attractively located pipelines and terminals in the Gulf Coast, and we are committed to helping the company further improve operational performance with the TerminalSmart platform.” 

TerminalSmart is the industry’s first web-based service platform that integrates vessel tracking, dock management, and analysis in a single, convenient operational dashboard for marine terminal operators.

TerminalSmart supports dock scheduling, comprehensive dock activity logging, and business intelligence reporting. The platform provides real-time operational benefits such as predictive ETA of inbound vessels, and real-time alerting of stakeholders based on dock schedule changes. 

TerminalSmart also gives terminal operators access to PortVision’s comprehensive database of both real-time and historical vessel movements based on AIS vessel-tracking data, and combines it with powerful management, analysis and reporting tools to enhance terminal operations.
