Dry Bulk

Commodity traders sit at the center of the physical supply chain. BV addresses the complexity of calculating demurrage across multiple counterparties and contracts, giving the trading desk speed, flexibility, and the audit trail both sides of the trade can verify.

For owners and operators running fleets of bulk carriers on voyage charters worldwide, recovering every dollar of demurrage is an operational problem. BV accelerates laytime calculation for complex port calls — lightering, shifting, tidal windows — and builds the evidence package the charterer cannot dispute.

Charterers — trading houses lifting cargo on voyage deals and industrial producers with FOB/CIF exposure — need pro-rata allocation across multi-supplier cargoes, fast settlement, and live visibility of demurrage payables and receivables against their contract book.

BV's platform helps brokers and port agents process demurrage calculations quickly and accurately, reducing overhead and delivering greater value to clients under pressure for faster, cost-effective service at rising transaction volumes.
