Vessel chartering

We select vessels for project and general cargo. We assess carrying capacity and equipment against cargo particulars and voyage requirements.

What is included

Tonnage thatfits the cargo

We start with cargo particulars and transport constraints to assess vessel suitability before discussing the rate. We compare available tonnage and agree voyage terms. The charterer gets a vessel selected against the technical requirements of the shipment.

Cargo particulars

We review cargo weight, dimensions and handling characteristics to establish vessel requirements.

02

Tonnage suitability

We assess vessel carrying capacity and equipment against the requirements of the intended shipment.

Freight rate

We negotiate the rate with the shipowner for the selected tonnage and seek the charterer’s agreement.

04

Voyage terms

We clarify transport requirements and agree voyage terms between the charterer and shipowner.
