Steel & Bulk
The Steel & Bulk business unit focuses on developing long term industrial relationships with its customers through offering a service with high degree of flexibility and reliability.
The main activity is transport of various steel and bulk cargoes from Black Sea and Baltic to the USA and Far East. However, the business unit is also active in trades to and from other destinations, partly on joint venture basis with the other business units in order to utilize the Western Bulk Group presence and market knowledge worldwide. Complementary activities include long period tonnage and industrial bulk COAs.
In total these factors contribute to creating a well diversified and sustainable business model.
The Steel & Bulk unit is managed out of the Oslo office and operates on average about 12-15 vessels. Our representative Port Captains in Houston assists in carrying out the logistics.
