Alex had his first placement in our Port Hedland office where he was placed for the first 4 months of his trainee-ship, and was then transferred to our Newcastle office for the remaining 6 months. Alex was a fast learner and a mature individual who showed great enthusiasm for the industry. Within the first month of his placement he was already boarding vessels unsupervised, whether they called during the day or at night, outside of the regular working hours. During his time with the Company, Alex liaised with many of the major shipowners and shippers we contract with including BHP, Glencore, Roy Hill, Kline, Oldendorff and China Shipping to name a few. He was primarily involved with the shipping of coal and iron ore.

Epic Gas Ltd., owns and operates a fleet of 44 modern and high quality fully pressurised gas carriers providing seaborne services for the transportation of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and petrochemicals. I was fortunate enough to be sat on the chartering desk where I gained a great understanding about the commercial side of the industry from an Owners point of view. This included how they interact/negotiate with charterers through brokers. I specifically assisted in voyage calculations, reviewed charter parties and learnt about laytime and demurrage calculations. Show less
