Bering Tonnage is a single-player maritime logistics simulator. Start a shipping company in one region of the world and grow it into a global operation. Strategy, planning, and knowledge of the world will carry you a long way.

Deliver Cargo

Load cargo in Miami, cross the Panama Canal, and deliver it to the West Coast. Carry freight from Rotterdam to Shanghai. Or keep things simple between Helsinki and Sweden. There are 314 trade ports. The choice is yours!

Buy New Ships

Expand through used purchases, new-build orders, and ship hire at 20 unique shipyards around the world. Choose from 167 ship variants across 34 manufacturers. Upgrade engines, fit icebreaker equipment, and customize your liveries. Build a fleet that fits your network.

Store Cargo In Depots

Turn ports into regional hubs. Funnel Caribbean cargo into Miami, then send it overseas. Connect smaller ports to larger routes through feeder services. Store cargo, collect it later, and keep your network moving.

Acquire Licenses

New markets take more than money. Build your reputation, recruit qualified license officers, and choose your ship registries carefully. With over 150 shipping licenses, nationality requirements, and domestic shipping restrictions, expansion takes planning. Regional mission trees give you fresh goals along the way.

Automate Everything

You can't run a global network manually forever. Set rules for loading, deliveries, depot transfers, and departure conditions. Link routes together, schedule repair waits, and balance speed against fuel costs. Build the network of your dreams and let your rules handle the routine.

Compete Or Cooperate

Other shipping companies are already working these waters. Compete for cargo or buy out rival market share. Or sign fulfilment agreements with other carriers. Sign deals for them to collect cargo and deposit it at your depots, and you handle the onward journey.

Build A Shipping Group

Create your own subsidiaries with separate fleets, boards, and finances. Hire CEOs to run them and set their priorities. Bring in investors, balance shareholder demands, and decide how much control you're willing to sell. Cash out after a few years for a huge profit!

Handle Political, Bureaucratic, And Natural Challenges

Tropical storms. Earthquakes. Worker strikes. Ice-blocked ports. Political blockades. War. You may think differently about Manila once typhoon season starts affecting your schedules. Alongside this, fuel, flag costs, mooring fees, and repairs determine whether your carefully planned network actually makes money. You'll also need to navigate the complex puzzles of license registration and meeting every country's requirements. It's an enjoyable nightmare.
