Tanker chartering, time charter, newbuilds and S&P

Independent tanker chartering, built on the northern trades.

We negotiate charters for oil and chemical tankers worldwide, working daily with owners and charterers on fossil and renewable products, feedstocks and chemicals.

Our Core Areas Baltic, Scandinavia, UKC/ARAG and Ireland, Mediterranean, Black Sea, Middle East, Latin America, North America and the Far East

Day-to-day chartering to long-term tonnage.

We work for the major oil and trading companies in the business. Our network and years in the market mean we can find the right ship, on the right terms, without cutting corners on safety or quality.

Chartering

Reliable sea logistics sit at the heart of the value chain. Years of fixing ships in harsh northern weather have taught us what it takes to keep cargo moving safely, and we stay in touch with every party so nothing slips.

Time charter contracts

A time charter is a risk tool for owners and charterers alike. It locks in the tonnage you need and lets you plan transport properly. We know the ships and the market well enough to negotiate sharp terms.

Commercial management

We keep your tankers earning. Using our network, we plan the best possible voyages across a mix of contract types to get the most out of each vessel.

Sea ice on the Baltic
Winter trading

Ice season is part of the job.

Years of working with ships in the harsh conditions of the north have given us the know-how to keep cargoes moving safely through the Baltic winter, and the contacts to find the right tonnage when the ice sets in.

Newbuild projects

Efficient ships, designed with first-class partners.

Our newbuild work is about quality, safety, competitiveness and a lighter environmental footprint. We build with leading yards in Europe and the Far East, and work closely with the sub-contractors behind engine rooms, power generation and performance optimisation.

Sale and purchase

Tanker S&P, handled quietly and properly.

Our S&P desk runs on trust, market intelligence and long relationships. We find the right opportunities for owners and investors, and close deals fast, confidentially and on the best terms available.

Post-fixture operations
The fixture is only the start. Smooth operations and clean paperwork are what keep customers coming back.

We manage the whole operational process together with our partners and the crews on board and ashore, with quick, correct answers when things change.
