This 14 page booklet identifies the amendments to SHELLVOY 6. It should be read in conjunction with INTERTANKO’s commentary on SHELLVOY 5, published in A Guide to Tanker Charters, as this publication remains relevant to many of the clauses in SHELLVOY 6.

SHELLVOY 6 is Shell’s updated form of tanker voyage charterparty. The intention behind SHELLVOY 6 is to include all current amendments issued since 1987 and to ‘clarify standard interpretations and practice’. INTERTANKO’s commentary on SHELLVOY 6 is not comprehensive as it is confined to material updates not previously circulating in the market.

On 16 March 2005 Shell launched SHELLVOY 6, their updated form of tanker voyage charterparty. Their stated intention was to include in the new form all amendments issued since 1987 and to ‘clarify standard interpretations and practice’. Shell issued the new form together with a note to brokers. An explanatory note, plus their standard template for recaps (both charter in and charter out), was also included. The new charterparty form comprises three parts. Parts 1 and 2 detail the main body of the form and Part 3 contains clauses for specific countries.

This commentary is not comprehensive as it is confined to new amendments not previously circulating in the market and focuses on Parts 1 and 2 of the new form.
