Shipping International
Global Logistics. Technical Updates. Market Data.
Welcome to aajs.com. Founded in Houston in 1996 under the name Shipping International – The Maritime Net Magazine, the platform originally focused on maritime operations reporting and technical shipping news. Since then, it has evolved into a global maritime intelligence hub tracking developments across the shipping industry from a technical and operational perspective.
Today, the platform serves as a complete maritime intelligence hub, combining live vessel tracking, bunker market data, and macro port logistics with global shipping benchmarks—including the Baltic Dry Index (BDI) and the Drewry World Container Index (WCI). This real-time market data runs alongside live operational news streams from leading industry sources, including Splash247, Hellenic Shipping News Worldwide, MarineLink, Marine Technology News, DNV Maritime News and Maritime Insight.
From bunker procurement and voyage planning to port efficiency and shipping markets, our goal remains unchanged: to provide clear, actionable information for maritime professionals, researchers and shipping enthusiasts worldwide. Independent maritime intelligence with a Scandinavian perspective and global reach.
