Small product-tanker broking
Enquiries for small product-tanker fixtures, handled the same way: as brokers only, co-broking, with the commission agreed in writing first.
About small product-tanker broking
Some cargoes move on small product tankers. We take enquiries for these fixtures and pass them between the owner and the charterer as brokers only.
We handle them alongside an established broker (co-broking). We own no vessels and carry no cargo, and we do not take title to any cargo.
What we do
- Take the nomination for the tanker enquiry
- Work the enquiry together with an established broker
- Pass offers word for word, as the owner or supplier gives them
- Agree our commission, and any split with the co-broker, in writing before any offer is passed
- Send a recap that names both principals and states that Velumic acts as brokers only
What we need from you
- Vessel name and IMO number
- Port
- Delivery window
- Grade
- Quantity
How it works
01 · The four steps of a fixture
Every product-tanker enquiry follows the same four steps as every fixture: nomination, commission in writing, offers word for word, and the recap. They are explained once, on How a fixture works.
