Vessel Chartering & Ship Broking Services
The right vessel for your cargo, and the right employment for your vessel. NeoBridge Marine arranges voyage, time and bareboat charters for tankers, bulk carriers and offshore vessels. We negotiate fair terms and stay with the fixture from enquiry to redelivery.
Whether You Have Cargo or a Vessel, We Close the Gap
For Charterers & Cargo Owners
You need suitable, compliant tonnage on your dates and at a workable rate. We source vessels that match your cargo, ports and laycan. We screen them for condition and suitability, and we negotiate terms that protect your interests.
For Shipowners & Operators
Idle days cost money. We find employment for your vessel, whether spot voyages, period time charters or longer-term contracts. We match it with reliable charterers and negotiate hire, freight and terms that reflect the market.
Chartering Solutions We Arrange
01
Voyage Charter
Your cargo carried between named ports for an agreed freight. The owner runs the vessel and pays voyage costs. We negotiate freight, laytime, demurrage and cargo terms so there are no surprises at discharge.
02
Time Charter
A vessel on hire for an agreed period at a daily rate. The charterer directs employment and pays voyage costs, while the owner keeps the vessel crewed and maintained. This suits charterers with regular cargo flows or trading programmes.
03
Bareboat Charter
Long-term hire of a vessel without crew. The charterer takes full operational and technical control. It is suited to operators building capacity without buying tonnage, and we can support the operation through our Ship Management team.
04
Contract of Affreightment (COA)
A fixed volume of cargo moved over a defined period, with the owner free to nominate suitable vessels. It is efficient for shippers with steady, predictable volumes.
05
Offshore Vessel Chartering
OSVs, crew boats, tugs and support tonnage for offshore energy and marine projects, on spot or term contracts, with vessels screened for client audit and project requirements.
06
Sale & Purchase
Support for owners buying or selling second-hand tonnage, including vessel identification, inspection coordination and negotiation.
