For Vessel Owners

Your Gateway to
West Africa's Tanker Market

NPA Licensed Agent — Apapa, Lagos

Regular Cargo, Guaranteed Payment, Full Port Support

West Africa consistently delivers premium freight for MR tankers — Lagos, Port Harcourt, Warri, and Bonny generate regular CPP and DPP requirements that we fix on behalf of cargo interests and charterers. As NPA Licensed Agent, we also handle every port-side complexity so you focus on the vessel.

We work with Greek, Turkish, UAE, and Asian owners. Payments arranged by LC at sight, escrow, or pre-payment before loading — USD-denominated, no Nigerian naira exposure.

All fixtures are concluded on BIMCO-standard charter party forms — GENCON, SHELLTIME, SUPPLYTIME, or as agreed — providing internationally recognised documentation that meets your P&I and vetting requirements.

Charterer Vetting — Your Protection

Every charterer enquiry we bring to owners has passed our qualification process: principal status confirmed, company registration verified, and a signed LOI on company letterhead received before any vessel details are shared. We do not pass on daisy-chain or unverified cargo interest. Your vessel is introduced only to confirmed principals.

Why West Africa

Premium Freight Rates

West African routes consistently command a 15–25% premium over international averages — driven by Nigeria's high-volume crude and product demand and limited competition from established brokers.

  • Lagos–Rotterdam: $45–55/MT
  • Port Harcourt–US Gulf: $50–60/MT
  • Warri–Mediterranean: $48–58/MT

Payment Security

We structure every fixture to protect owners. Funds arranged before loading through transparent channels across all jurisdictions.

  • Letter of Credit at sight
  • Escrow via international banks
  • USD-denominated — no naira risk

Full Port Support

NPA Licensed Agent status means we handle every shore-side task — berthing, clearance, documentation, crew changes. Your vessel focuses on cargo.

  • Priority berthing access
  • NIMASA & NPA compliance
  • Navy coordination (GON)
  • BIMCO charter party documentation
