A ship management company looks after the technical and crewing running of a vessel on behalf of the owner, covering maintenance, compliance, crew and safety. ShipNanak offers technical management and crew management from India, outlined on its services page.

India has a deep pool of trained seafarers and marine engineers, and ShipNanak combines that pool with STCW and MLC compliant manning and technical supervision. You can see how the two services fit together on the crew management page.

ShipNanak describes technical management, crew management and labour supply as separate services that can be combined, so an owner can take one or several. Ask the team how they apply to your fleet, starting from the technical management overview.

ShipNanak lists BIMCO SHIPMAN among the frameworks it works to, the widely used standard agreement for ship management services. Ask operations how it would be applied to your vessel through the ShipNanak contact page.

Yes, owners with one vessel or a small fleet can ask about technical management, crew management or both, and the team will explain the steps. Describe your vessel through the request builder here or on the ShipNanak services listing.
