Eliminate the Queuing Time in the New Suez Canal: Predicting Adjustment on Ships’ Arrival Time under Optimal Non-Queuing Toll Scheme

In 2016, the construction of New Suez Canal was completed, enabling most large-size vessels to pass through and causing more ships queue into canal. As queueing problem at entrance canal anticipated be serious, an optimal non-queueing toll scheme previously established eliminate phenomenon anchorage However, no information about each ship’s arrival time adjustment under is available from previous literature. To solve this problem, we derive a series mathematical formulae for time, length queuing entry before, after, implementing scheme. The adjustments, which enable enter without queueing, could then obtained. These results authorities draw up timetable scheme, so that captain follow above provide would conducive management decision implement such Once tolled ship scheduled owner accurately control sailing schedule, use efficient.
