GS&T acts as the core division of the company, overseeing a substantial portion of the drybulk carrier fleet. This segment is primarily responsible for:

- Vessel Deployment: The vessels are deployed through different contractual arrangements, including:
- Time Charters: Vessels are leased for a set period at a predetermined rate, allowing the lessee to operate the ship and transport cargo.
- Spot Market Charters: Engaging in the spot market involves hiring out vessels for single voyages at market rates, which can be volatile but may yield higher returns during peak demand.
- Vessel Pooling Arrangements: GS&T may also participate in vessel pools, whereby multiple shipowners combine their vessels for collective management, optimizing freight rates and improving operational efficiency.
- Operational Flexibility: The division constantly assesses market conditions to optimize vessel deployment and ensure that assets are utilized in the most profitable manner.
