Pages: 332
Dry Cargo Chartering describes work at the coalface of
the dry cargo sector, mainly involving the shipping of bulk
commodities.
This book explains how this part of the industry works and also
looks at the less familiar cargoes and trades. It describes the
roles of the shipowner, the charterer and the shipbroker and also
the duties of back-office staff. Readers will gain an understanding
of the nuts and bolts of charter parties and different types of
shipping documentation. The types of employment of ships, including
various commodities and cargoes, are covered too.
This volume is aimed at industry personnel who wish to proceed
down a certain career path within the shipping industry. This book
will be essential reading if that is a dry cargo route, but it will
also be highly beneficial to the student who simply wishes to
expand their knowledge of the industry.
