Oil & Gas
Keeping the world's energy flowing
Oil & Gas
Demurrage management solutions designed for gas carriers and supertankers navigating the complexities of energy production, refining, and transportation.
The energy trade runs on long charterparties, extended settlement windows, and rules that don't exist in dry bulk — cooldown, boil-off, vapor return, prorated laycans. Missed deadlines on a single VLCC cargo can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. BV is built from the ground up for these contracts.
