BaseHKGSheung Wan, Hong Kong.
Based in Hong Kong, Ellsworth works across shipping and physical commodity markets. We bring together the commercial requirements of a trade and the movement that supports it — so the product, the terms and the tonnage are considered as one decision, not three.
02 — Chartering
Cargo.Capacity.Terms.
Chartering starts with understanding the cargo and its voyage. We bring a commercial focus to vessel selection and charter terms — across dry bulk and tanker markets.
Tanker chartering
Liquid cargo shipping with attention to vessel suitability, terms and timing.
Voyage coordination
Aligning counterparties, documentation and operations as the voyage progresses.

06 — Principles
Clarity carries weight.
These principles guide how we frame opportunities, discuss terms and work with counterparties.
i.
Precision
Make requirements and terms explicit. Ambiguity is a cost; we remove it early.
ii.
Discipline
Examine the details behind each decision — product, freight, timing and counterparty.
iii.
Accountability
Be clear about responsibilities and next steps, from first call to final document.
