From full technical and crew management to flexible peak-load support. Hands-on maritime expertise combined with our own digital systems, delivered as full management or as the modules your operation needs.
Delivery models
Full management or modular support.
We adapt to how you run your fleet, including smaller fleets and single-vessel operators.
Full management
One partner for the whole vessel
Technical and crew management with ISM, ISPS and MLC compliance, emergency preparedness and digital operations handled under one contract and one Document of Compliance.
Modular support
Only the services you are missing
Pick what you need and keep the rest of your operation exactly as it is: technical management, crew management, ISM/ISPS/MLC, accounting and crew wages — each on its own or in any combination, under one contract.
Day-to-day technical responsibility for the vessel, run by chief engineers and superintendents who have done the job at sea. Planned maintenance is kept live, dockings are specified and supervised, and every budget line is explained.
Recruitment, rosters, STCW and MLC compliance, wellbeing.
The right people on board, certified and looked after. We handle rosters and rotations, certificate validity, contracts and payroll under MLC, and we keep an eye on retention and welfare, not just headcount.
Sourcing and selection of officers, ratings and office staff for owners who keep crewing in-house but need reach. We draw on a strong network with flag states, maritime unions and training institutions.
The safety management system on board and ashore, under our Documents of Compliance. Internal audits, preparation for and presence at flag state and class audits, incident reporting, root-cause analysis and preventive action, with a Designated Person Ashore and Company Security Officer assigned to each vessel.
Cloud-based HSEQ, crew and ship management platform.
Shipping.fo is a fully digital company. Our own cloud platform covers HSEQ, crewing and ship management, so findings, certificates, drills and KPIs live in one place and the owner sees them in real time.
Flexible cover for workload peaks and urgent needs.
Extra hands when your own team is stretched: a superintendent for a docking, DPA cover during holidays, a compliance officer before an audit, or a full technical desk for a season. Scaled to what you need, for as long as you need it.
A manned emergency line around the clock, with certified Designated Persons Ashore and Company Security Officers who know the vessel. Contingency plans are written, drilled and updated, not filed away.
Certified HazMat surveyors on staff. We prepare and maintain the Inventory of Hazardous Materials for EU Ship Recycling Regulation and Hong Kong Convention compliance, and advise on safe handling and documentation on board.
Inspections and insurance support before towing operations.
Condition, pre-purchase and pre-towing surveys, and support with the insurance side: warranty surveyors, documentation and approvals, so a vessel moves safely with its paperwork in order.
Every step of a change of flag to the Faroe Islands.
As FAS agent we take a vessel from company setup to raising the Faroese flag: registration, documentation, taxation and compliance, using our expertise in registries and our relationships with the flag administration.
