Project Management & Coordination

Dry dock

We ensure efficient management of your dry docking logistics. Our dedicated teams handle every step from contract negotiation, pre-planning, coordination, warehousing, clean-up to return transport.

Yard stay

As we have accomplished numerous yard stays with success in our role as logistics provider, we know how the strengths of our flexible set-up can provide efficient solutions for such complex tasks.

New build

During construction of cruise liners, when the clock is ticking and every second counts, you will need a reliable transport partner who can handle thousands of shipments from all the suppliers.

Port agency for Cruise Vessels

In all Nordic and North Atlantic ports, our skilled port agency teams handle all classes and sizes of cruise vessels. All ships have different needs and requirements, and we strive to go above and beyond.

From private yachts, specialised expedition ships to the modern mega ships, we have many years of experience with both transit calls and complex turnaround operations.

Our agency teams provide full 24/7 services to crew, staff and cruise line offices. The services include booking berths, obtaining permits, preparations with all local suppliers, clearance, crew changes, stevedoring, deliveries, medical assistance, local purchases and much more.

Ensuring a streamlined process

Working closely together with our worldwide logistics colleagues makes it possible to create tailor-made solutions, fitting the needs and wishes of the various ships and cruise lines.

Besides the on-site agency services provided by our own colleagues, we have an extensive network of trusted port agency partners, allowing us to offer regional hub-agency services.

As hub-agents, we will create streamlined processes, handle administration and contracts, and the sub-agents will work with the ships locally. This allows all parties to concentrate their efforts where it makes most sense.
