Fremantle based ship broking, ship agency and marine service provider Sea Corp has signed an agreement to handle the shipping needs of the Pilbara's new force in iron ore, Fortescue Metals Group.
The three-year contract, which can be extended for five years, becomes effective from April 2008 and is understood to represent the world's largest ship agency tender signed this year. Seacorp will handle all the ship agency, local representation and document execution for Fortescue, and will be the exclusive agent for all ships calling at the Pilbara port of Port Hedland to handle Fortescue cargo. Seacorp managing director Craig Thompson said Seacorp would also be the shipping agent for Fortescue's CFR, cost and freight terms, shipments at various discharge ports in China. Seacorp, which was set up by Craig Thompson in 1998, is the nation's largest independently owned Australian ship agency and Shipbroking Company.
