Sea transport is one of the most inexpensive means to transport goods and to carry out sale and purchase contracts all around the world. Volume and activity of sea transportation are on a large scale progressively increasing. This growth is determined by development of external economic links between countries and increasing turnover of production raw material and goods. One of the leading positions in the abovementioned turnover belongs to the market of raw materials and products delivered from the Black Sea-Azov region. It's no surprise that many large and new trading companies develop their business relations exactly in this area. Our company is one of broker firms which aim their activities to assist the trader in cargo transportation. Facing the problem of arranging sea transportation of a specified kind of cargo, owners of cargo (charterers) sometimes have incomplete information on the freight rate and on the procedure of conclusion and signing of transportation contract, including responsibilities and obligations of the contract parties. An experienced broker is able to assist to solve this problem. He follows his principal's requests - the way the charterer wants to draw up the Charter-party and if this is possible on the basis of actual or projected conditions and current level of freight market. The freight market, in its part, is subject to its complicated rules which however in most cases can be foreseen. Knowledge and analysis of these rules are the broker's staple. Our company has wide experience of the abovementioned cooperation, particularly in chartering of ships for general and bulk cargoes from Black Sea basin to different ports of the world. Among our partners there are leading sellers and owners of metal, scrap metal and fertilizers, as well as a large container line. Moreover, we have relations with a wide number of shipowners, shipmanagers and operators ranging from "river-sea" type to large tonnage of 40,000-60,000 tons deadweight. An experienced specialist will give you a competent consultation which may be of help to you to avoid or minimize costs and expenses that often arise apart from expenditures on freight. We will be glad to have you as our clients and we will do our best and use all our experience to render chartering services as well as informational and consulting services. Our general aim is to provide to the clients the full range of agency service strongly supported with deep analysis and forecasting. That is why the people joined our team are exceptionally skilled in agency, chartering, trading and juridical aspects. Our agency license covers all of Russian Black and Azov Sea ports, that is why we started to develop Seasco offices at the most attractive and fast growing ports ( apart from Novorossiysk) Tuapse and Kavkaz. But undoubtedly Novorossiysk remains Russia's most significant outlet of crude oil, as well as dry cargoes, thus and so the main Seasco agency activity is based here. At different times and stages the member of our staff served a series of major players at oil and dry cargo shipping market, so our team is rather familiar with their demands and such experience enables us to be one step ahead with our service to our principals.
