Subject: Re: Voyage Charter for VLCC From: Info Date: 08/12/2022, 08:15 To: operation CC: ferd@hk-shippingco.com, mike@hk-shippingco.com Dear Sir First, thanks for understanding the subject for voyage chartering. I understood the situation that you are in, but your side must try to quick laycan and send me actual Q88 of mother vessel for max Sunday. Regarding your request for 15 days laytime, it means voyage time to Malaysia and owner can earn money. In worth case if owner waiting for 15 days, the cost will be around 2 m usd. But, what can I do for you is; FYI, I will meet owner’s side as they will arrive to Dubai for tomorrow. I will start to discuss to them on 3+3 TC to save time for you up to Monday, that be able to sign contract for Monday or Tuesday. That meaning 4-5 days of 15 days as owner laycan is 9-11, also I can try to convince owner for 144 HRS as laytime. It means covering 2 days more and covering 10-11 days of 15 days that you requested. The final result will following below; 1 option: If I be successful to get approval from owner side on 3+3 TC, then everything solved as per your request. 2 option: if owner asked for voyage charter as a trial and after that signing 3+3 TC, by above scenario, we covered 10-11 days of 15 days that you requested.
