Ship Agency.

We are the captain’s and shipowner’s trusted representative in port – around the clock.
What does it mean?

Ship Agency in practice

Ship agency means handling all practical matters during a vessel’s port call. We act as the link between the port, authorities, the vessel and the shipowner – and take responsibility for all costs arising from the port call, which we then invoice to the shipowner.

In practice, we are present in every situation: we manage dealings with the authorities, arrange the necessary services and ensure that the port call proceeds without surprises.
