Our Team
SVC Marine is built around a practical international marine team combining shipbroking, ship operation, technical coordination, owner’s representative work, DPA support, ship repair supervision and field execution in Vietnam and regional markets.
Our team supports shipowners, managers, buyers and operators who need reliable people on the ground, clear technical communication and practical coordination between the vessel, owner’s office, shipyard, class, flag, agents, vendors and service suppliers.
SVC Marine’s strength is not only office-based brokerage. We combine commercial shipping knowledge with operational and technical field experience.
