About us
Independent Advice. Specialist Execution.
Osher Shipping is an independent maritime advisory and asset structuring company representing shipowners, investors and industrial stakeholders across the lifecycle of a tanker asset.
01 / Our position
Osher Shipping Works on the Side of the Shipowner and Investor
One independent perspective across capital, vessel, employment and management.
We assess tanker opportunities, structure transactions, coordinate professional counterparties and independently oversee the execution of the owner’s strategy.
We do not replace the appointed ship manager. We ensure that decisions, costs and performance remain transparent and accountable to the owner.
Tanker investments bring together capital, vessels, commercial employment, technical management and regulatory responsibility. Each component may be handled by a different specialist, but the owner requires one independent view across the entire structure.
02 / Our role in practice
What Independent Representation Means on Board
Documentation Review
Verification of technical records, class status, certificates and maintenance history.
Negotiation Presence
Owner-side participation in commercial and contractual discussions with counterparties.
Independent Reporting
Consolidated reporting prepared for the owner rather than for the manager.
03 / Partnership model
Specialist Execution Under One Independent Perspective
We coordinate specialists — and keep them accountable.
Where daily technical or operational management is required, we rely on established international partners, including experienced Greek shipping companies with extensive management capabilities across tanker, gas and specialised vessel segments.
Legal, insurance, classification, valuation and other specialist functions are coordinated with appropriately qualified professional advisers.
Osher Shipping does not replace the ship manager. We ensure that the ship manager remains accountable to the owner.
