Shipping
Our clients are engaged in buying, selling and shipping bulk commodities on a world-wide basis. Viking Shipping Company AS has proven experience in this specialist shipping sector.
Viking Shipping Company is active in dry cargo chartering, both in the spot fixing and for long term contracts.
We are specialized in parcel trade services as well as bulk, general cargo, projects cargoes and forest products
Chartering
We arrange deep sea transportation of large volumes loading in China, India, SE Asia, Australia, US West Coast, US Gulf, Great Lakes, South Africa, the Mediterranean Sea and Norway, to destinations around the world.
The short sea segment is an active and expanding area in the ship brokering services provided by Viking Shipping Company AS.
We provide transportation of firelogs, pulplogs, sawlogs, woodchips and sawn timber, as well as other products from the forest industry.
Agency
We provide a full port agency service in the Port of Oslo, Norway. Through extensive experience over many decades from providing services to Ship-Owners, Shippers or Receivers we are able to cater your needs during a port call if that entails importing, exporting, domestic movement of commodities or the ship and crew.
We can also assist with custom clearance for commodities being imported or exported, as well as land transport.
Extra Specialist Services
Whilst we refer to ourselves as a shipping brokerage then we do take some additional work on for our Clients rather than be a “middleman mailbox” i.e. depending on clients preferences we can handle everything from budgets have been made and accepted, i.e. we can handle the entire contract negotiation (we work on simple standard contracts which have been tried and tested, each adapted and tailor-made for individual clients’ trade to limit liability and avoid extra costs).
We liaise with cargo shippers (suppliers), ship owners, port agents, we can do the back office functions such as the voyage execution/operations and on completion take care of the laytime computation (one would be surprised how often money is left on the table by Charterers in that respect) and in the rare events of claims then we can handle claims and settlements as well.
Tanker Services
Even though we focus on dry-cargo shipments, we do handle tanker requirements of drilling mud and base oils for customers in the oil field service industry.
Spot Market Specialists
In recent years Viking Shipping Company AS has put emphasis on being recognized in spot markets with noticeable, remunerative results.
