Klaveness is the pioneer in pools, from designing the first-ever concept in 1963 and through 60 years of successful operations

Tradition meets innovation in the world of dry bulk shipping

In 1963, the first shipping pool was created by shipping visionary Mr. Torvald Klaveness. In 2020, Marubeni Corporation and Klaveness AS joined forces to create Baumarine by MaruKlav. United by the belief in the strength of partnerships and collaboration, we merged our activities to create the largest dry bulk Panamax pool worldwide. Our dry cargo Panamax pool connects shipowners globally by leveraging our extensive market and industry expertise.

In a volatile market where charterers often dictate timing, we empower owners by offering a compelling alternative. Through close collaboration, scale, and advanced data analytics, we put owners back in control of their assets. We strive to be your trusted partner and closest ally throughout the decision-making process, providing guidance on purchase, employment alternatives, earnings potential, and asset sales.

Welcome to Baumarine by MaruKlav, where we truly believe in being Stronger Together!
