Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate, as the document does not provide a specific daily charter hire rate or a total contract value. However, considering the charter period of 32 days and the cargo capacity, a possible estimate could be in the range of $500,000 to $2 million. This estimate is based on the assumption that the daily charter hire rate could range from $15,000 to $60,000, depending on the type and size of the vessel. The actual budget could be higher or lower, depending on the specific requirements and the proposals submitted by the interested parties.
