WHAT IS HUSBANDRY SERVICE ?

Husbandry services in the context of ship agency refer to a range of services provided to ships while they are in port or at anchor. These services are essential to ensure the smooth operations of the vessel and the well-being of its crew during their stay in port. The term “husbandry” comes from the maritime tradition where a “ship’s husband” was responsible for managing the vessel’s affairs onshore:

  • Port Agency Services: Representing the ship’s interests and handling administrative tasks like documentation, customs, and permits.
  • Crew Assistance: Supporting crew members with crew changes, shore passes, and personal/medical needs.
  • Supply and Provisioning: providing Fuel, Fresh Water, and Provisions for the ship’s crew while in port.
  • Technical Support: Organizing technical services, repairs, and spare parts if needed.
  • Waste Removal: Ensuring proper disposal of ship-generated waste as per environmental regulations.
  • Cash to Master (CTM): Assisting with delivering funds to the ship’s master for petty cash expenses.
  • Crew Welfare: Helping with crew recreational activities, transportation, and welfare matters.
  • Documentation and Reporting: Maintaining accurate records and providing necessary reports to ship owners and operators.

Husbandry services are essential for efficient port stays. A reliable agency with a network of agents ensures timely fulfillment of requirements, allowing shipowners to focus on core operations while their vessels receive necessary support and care in port.
