Squat

This document contains calculations for under keel clearance (UKC) for a vessel transiting in confined and open waters. It provides the required UKC for the vessel according to the owner's policy, which is a minimum of 0.5 meters alongside and 0.65 meters below deepest draft while underway in confined waters, and a minimum of 15% of deepest draft in open waters. It then shows sample UKC calculations for a route between Lagos and Lome, accounting for factors like draft, tide, squat, speed, and current. Minimum safe UKC is identified as 1.05 meters for this leg of the voyage.

NOTES: Minimmum UKC at all times for this leg is (Safety Margin): 1.050 Mtrs
Whenever a chart depth or guaranted UKC clearance is verified using trustfull information sources (like port authority, agent, pilots, VTS, etc), the additional CATZOC UKC #2
will be considered ZERO (NO additional UKC) due to maximum level of confidence gained using that trustfull sources irrespective of the ZOC category shown in the
electronic chart used for navigation.
