Welcome to Offenship
The ship operator Claus-Peter Offen (founded in 1971) is based in Hamburg, and is one of the world’s largest suppliers of modern container ship tonnage.

It has some 115 container vessels in service or currently under construction; most of them are chartered under long-term contract to leading shipping lines. They are employed in worldwide service.

At the beginning of 2007, the company made its first move into the chemicals and product tanker market. A new company Claus-Peter Offen Tankschiffreederei (Offen Tankers) was formed; eight special-purpose tankers with 36,000 dwt and a further eight with 52,000 dwt were ordered from the Hyundai Mipo yard in South Korea, for delivery starting in 2008.

Having ordered 4 bulk carriers in 2008 the company soon will also operate in the bulk market. Two ships each were ordered at the shipyards Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME, South Korea) and Daewoo Mangalia Heavy Industries (DMHI, Romania) with a tonnage capacity of 180,000 dwt. The 4 bulkers will be delivered in 2010 and 2011.
The company currently has a workforce of approximately 3,000 people on shore and at sea.

The company’s ships carry no passengers.
