Vessel chartering

Vessel chartering is a specialized field that requires the careful selection of suitable tonnage and the negotiation of carriage contracts or charter parties that precisely match the charterer’s logistical needs and prevailing shipping conditions—a process commonly referred to as vessel nomination.

Ikvopera acts as a competent shipping agent and dry-cargo ship broker, offering comprehensive transportation solutions from start to finish. Our scope of work includes securing competitive freight quotations and choosing the most cost-effective proposals; sourcing appropriate vessels for cargo delivery to European ports, Asian harbours, and inland rail terminals; and finding viable cargo for ships with unfilled capacity. We also handle end-to-end voyage coordination, covering pre-carriage to the load port and onward delivery from the discharge point. In addition, we advise on suitable insurance products and facilitate the placement of cover, prepare charter agreements, contracts of affreightment, and bills of lading, organise stevedoring operations and surveyor attendance, and maintain ongoing oversight and status tracking throughout the entire transit.

Service quality guarantees

Knowledge of documentation and legislation, well established communications with foreign suppliers and 10 years of experience allow us too quickly, simply and accurately build each stage so that the work of your enterprise does not stop.
