Services / Vessel chartering

Deploy

Vessel chartering in Nigeria, built around your assignment.

We help you define the vessel requirement, source capacity through approved vessel-owning partners, and coordinate the technical, commercial and mobilisation steps.

What you get

The right vessel starts with the right brief.

  • An agreed requirement brief

    Your job written down clearly, with a list of the questions still open.

  • A shortlist you can compare

    Offers side by side, with availability and exclusions noted.

  • A clear record

    Technical and documentation queries, and the mobilisation actions everyone agreed.

Scope of support

Access suited to offshore and coastal work.

  • AHTS and offshore tugs

    Anchor handling, towing and offshore support.

  • Platform support vessels

    Deck cargo, liquid-bulk carriage and offshore supply.

  • Crew-transfer vessels

    Personnel movement, subject to capacity, speed, range and safety needs.

  • Specialised support assets

    Accommodation barges, crane vessels and multi-purpose support vessels.

How it works

From operational need to deployable capacity.

  1. Requirement definition

    Mission, area, duration, deck or towing duty, accommodation, class, flag and mobilisation timing.

  2. Market sourcing

    We engage approved owners and managers for options that can be confirmed.

  3. Technical screening

    We review particulars, certification, equipment and recent history.

  4. Commercial coordination

    We compare offers, assumptions, exclusions and terms on the same basis.

  5. Readiness interface

    Documentation, inspection actions and mobilisation dependencies.

  6. Deployment support

    We manage the process from confirmation through to operational handover.

Before you send

What to send with your enquiry.

  • Work scope, operating area, and loading or delivery location
  • Start date, duration, extension options and quotation deadline
  • Cargo or passenger requirements, equipment and essential vessel capabilities
  • Acceptance criteria, inspection needs and any project specifications

Clear limits

A clear scope before mobilisation.

  • Vessels are sourced through approved partners. Apex does not present pictured vessels as its own fleet, and availability is subject to confirmation.
  • Class approval, statutory certification and legal review are separate responsibilities.
  • Timing, fees and third-party costs are set out in the proposal.
  • Work outside Lagos is assessed case by case.
