Protective Agency

We offer protective agency both for ship owners (OPA) and charterers/cargo owners (CPA) to supervise the counter party’s agent throughout the port call. As protective agents we ensure that your interests are well taken care of. This helps you avoid any conflict of interest that may arise with many stakeholders involved in a port call.

Why Choose Us As Your Protective Agent?

Local Knowledge
We are present in all the ports of the country and have access to top authorities (PORT / MMD / PSC, etc.).
We know the local, state, and port regulations, as well as port information, restrictions, supplier cost levels, etc.

Minimise Cost
We scrutinize the DA to ensure you are not overcharged and to keep your operations on schedule, e.g., verifying that pilots are on time and that the correct number of tugboats are ordered.
We have our own supply chain of stores/spares, including other maritime services.

Compliance
We follow strong governance and compliance principles.
With a protective agent, you can settle the PDA and funds through us, giving you more control over the shipper’s or receiver’s agent, as we are better positioned to challenge them with our local knowledge.

Statement of Facts (SOF)
We will check the SOF and challenge any questionable items that have not been agreed upon, in order to protect your interest.

24/7 Availability
We are at your full disposal 24/7 during loading and discharging operations to assist and intervene with shippers’/receivers’ agents as requested and when applicable.
