Chartering
The right vessel, at the right time, on the right terms. From a single supply run to a long-term subsea campaign.
Contract types
Every project is different, so we structure the charter around the job:
- Spot and short-term charters for urgent mobilisation
- Medium and long-term charters for sustained operations
- Time charter or bareboat
- Framework and call-off agreements to secure future availability

What we handle
- Reviewing the technical requirement and compliance standards before going to market
- Shortlisting and vetting vessels against the scope
- Negotiating commercial terms and the charter party
- Helping with mobilisation, scheduling and demobilisation
- Follow-up through the charter period to redelivery
