As a traditional ship operator, Claus-Peter Offen handles complete management of the container ships initiated by the company within its own organisation.

The modern container ship fleet mainly operates under long-term charter contracts for leading shipping lines, where the ships are employed in various line services around the world.

No passengers are carried on the Offen ships.

Chartering is conducted by the shipbroker company Carl Bock & Co., which has maintained close contacts with the shipowner since it was founded.
