Who We Are
Asia Pacific Shipping (ASP) is an independent, wholly private Vietnamese shipowner and operator of tankers and bulk carriers. Founded by experienced maritime professionals in 2021, ASP has grown from its initial bulk carrier operations into a diversified shipowning business serving international shipping markets. Today, ASP is developing a modern fleet across oil, chemical, gas and dry bulk segments, supported by experienced maritime professionals, international partners and a long-term newbuilding programme.
Asia Pacific Shipping Way
Our business is built on three core capabilities: shipowning, commercial operations and technical management. Together, these capabilities enable us to develop our fleet, optimise vessel employment and maintain safe, efficient and reliable vessel operations. We combine maritime expertise, disciplined execution and long-term partnerships to create lasting value for our people, customers, partners and our country.
Building a modern fleet for global trade
From our beginnings in Vietnam, ASP has developed into a growing shipowning platform with a diversified fleet of oil, chemical, gas and dry bulk vessels. We continue to invest in modern tonnage, newbuilding projects, people and long-term partnerships to build a stronger Vietnamese shipping company for global trade.
We continue to expand and modernise our fleet through vessel acquisitions and a long-term newbuilding programme. Our fleet covers oil, chemical, gas and dry bulk segments, giving ASP the flexibility to serve a wide range of international markets.
Our commercial team works across spot voyages, time charters and revenue-sharing pool partnerships. We focus on matching vessel capabilities with suitable cargoes, trades and employment opportunities while building long-term relationships with charterers and partners.
Safe and reliable vessel operations are at the heart of our business. ASP focuses on planned maintenance, regulatory compliance, operational readiness and continuous improvement to ensure the highest standards of vessel performance and safety.
Our people and partners are essential to our growth. We work with experienced maritime professionals, international ship managers, charterers, shipyards and financial partners to build a reliable and competitive shipping platform from Vietnam.
Serving Global Markets. From Vietnam to international shipping markets
ASP operates with a global outlook from its base in Vietnam. Our vessels serve international markets and connect with charterers, cargo interests, ship managers, shipyards and maritime partners across the global shipping industry.
Building Long-Term Partnerships. Reliable relationships. Shared value.
We believe sustainable growth is built through long-term relationships. By combining commercial understanding, operational discipline and maritime experience, ASP works with its partners to create reliable solutions and lasting value.
