Cruising speed (knots) The cruising speed define the maximal speed of the transportation in knots
DP speed The Dynamic Positioning speed is the speed the transport can travel in when it's positioning itself for jacking up
Type     xThe type defines the kind of transportation. Depending on the type, different input boxes are available
Onshore port     xThe port is the harbour, airport or similar, used as the point of departure on the way to the base or as a base
ID The ID is of unique value to identify the transportation
Work package  The transport can be assigned to a certain work package
