Tanker Brokerage

For over 70 years Poten & Partners has been providing ship brokerage services to the energy sector. We currently serve hundreds of clients representing oil majors, refiners, producers, traders, ship owners and pool operators.

Our team of tanker brokers is located in London, Houston and New York allowing us to serve you around the globe, around the clock. We take a cooperative ‘’one-desk’’ approach with teamwork as the crux of our philosophy among all of Poten’s offices, thereby providing the highest level of access and service possible.

Our unified team provides clients with real-time insight into both global and niche market developments with expertise in vessel classes encompassing Handy sized tankers through Very Large Crude Carriers. We take the time to not only follow cargo movements and shipping trends but also to understand the fundamentals of crude oil and all of its various refined products.

Our commitment to clients spans the life of a transaction. Our brokers and industry-leading operations team actively work with clients from the initiation to the completion of a fixture ensuring a successful and efficient experience for each charter.

At Poten, we avoid a one-size-fits-all approach, instead we focus on specific client needs with individually tailored methodologies through all aspects of research, consulting, brokerage and operations.

It is this approach, incorporating decades of experience, a wealth of corporate knowledge and individual savvy, and unwavering commitment throughout a fixture that allows us to distinguish ourselves as the premier tanker brokerage firm.
