BSM container ship management
Containerisation allows for goods to be bundled in standardised, fixed units; these intermodal containers provide a means to transport goods as larger, unitised loads that can be easily handled, stacked and moved by truck, trains and ships. A container vessel is a cargo ship that carries all its load in truck-size intermodal containers.
The invention of containerisation is attributed to American businessman Malcolm McLean who sought to simplify the long-drawn processes of cargo shipping. Today’s modern intermodal container traces its roots to the mid-1950s with the incorporation of a twistlock mechanism on all four corners that enables it to be secured, efficiently loaded with cranes onto vessels and hold fast on sea voyages. Take a look around wherever you are; the things you see and use every day were probably packed in and shipped from origin to destination in a container. The container is truly a building block of our modern lives.
BSM is the container vessel ship manager of choice thanks to its extensive track record in this space since the 1980s. We offer clients reliability, a global reach, can meet their crewing requirements as well as extensive experience and proven ability to manage complex projects from original design and newbuild supervision through to comprehensive full management services.
We provide responsive, regionally based support through highly trained and specialised dry cargo fleet teams, extensive reefer management capability to minimise risk of cargo spoiling, close monitoring of cargo and marine operations. This is carried out by skilled superintendents to achieve maximum operational efficiencies. It also ensures ships under management are maintained in peak condition throughout their entire life span through an in-house planned maintenance management system.
BSM manages container vessels with a focus on safe, efficient and cost-effective operation, maximising commercial utilization and established good relationships with container lines and operators.
