Overview

Technical superintendence for owners and operators — planned maintenance systems, class surveys, dry-dock preparation, condition monitoring, spares planning and performance analysis. We help keep vessels trading safely, in class and optimally fuel-efficient.

At Ocean Truck Shipping Lines, vessel technical support is delivered by a dedicated coordinator backed by a 24/7 operations desk. From the first enquiry to final disbursement account, you get transparent pricing, real-time updates and a single accountable point of contact — whether the vessel is calling Chittagong, Mongla, Payra, Matarbari or a partner port anywhere in the world.

Our team combines local port knowledge with international best practice, so owners, operators and charterers get faster turnaround, fewer surprises and full compliance with IMO, SOLAS, MARPOL and ISPS requirements.
