Chartering · Voyage Management · Claims
We connect your cargo or tonnage with the right counterparty, negotiate commercially sound terms, safeguard laytime, and manage each voyage through to clean delivery. The result is reduced risk and greater operational certainty.
What we do
Four integrated disciplines delivered by a single desk, maintaining commercial control at every stage of the fixture.
From initial enquiry to fixture recap, we match dry bulk and general cargo to suitable tonnage across Handysize to Panamax, including steel, grains, aggregates, and project cargo.
Comprehensive operational oversight from nomination to clean delivery, covering port coordination, NOR and SOF tracking, bunker monitoring, and structured daily reporting.
Accurate, defensible laytime calculations and claims preparation, protecting margin by preventing disputes where possible and pursuing legitimate claims where warranted.
Incident response handled with clarity. We coordinate surveys, evidence collection, and claim strategy from first notification to contain exposure and support timely recovery.
How it works
A disciplined four-stage process that moves efficiently to fixture, keeping you informed at every stage.
Provide the cargo specification or tonnage position, laycan window, and load and discharge ports. That is all we require to begin.
We screen viable counterparties and routes, then present a focused short-list of credible options.
We negotiate firm, commercially sound terms on your behalf, with transparent communication and no surprises at recap.
