Shipping & Logistics

End-to-End Logistics Management

Aurore Commodities manages the complete transportation and delivery process for every transaction, from origin through to final discharge at the buyer's nominated port or terminal. Our logistics capability covers vessel chartering and scheduling, ship-to-ship (STS) transfer coordination, terminal loading and discharge, customs and port documentation, and coordination with internationally recognised inspection agencies.

We operate along all principal petroleum shipping corridors, the Strait of Hormuz, Suez Canal, Strait of Malacca, Cape of Good Hope route, Mediterranean basin and transatlantic routes. For each transaction, we prepare a detailed logistics plan covering vessel scheduling, port calls, laydays, demurrage provisions and contingency arrangements, agreed with the buyer in advance and forming part of the contractual documentation.
