Features / Smart search

Type what you are after. Land on it.

Press ⌘K and type a ship, a company, a former name, an abbreviation, or a whole question like "tankers heading to Fujairah". Smart search works out what you mean and takes you straight there. A company turns up under any name it has used, and a question opens the matching vessels in Fleet. Questions are in Beta.

How it works

01

Any name it has used

Search knows 142,752 alternative names for 69,231 companies: former names, old spellings and abbreviations. Type the one you remember and you land on the company you meant.

02

One company, one page

We merged 5,014 duplicate company pages, and an old spelling now redirects to the right one. Its Network tab shows the decision makers, the company and its fleet at a glance.

03

Or ask a question

Type a whole question, like "tankers heading to Fujairah", and search reads it as Fleet filters and opens the matching vessels. Questions are in Beta.
