== Shulan-Maersk ==
One of the larger long distance haulers. Sophisticated computer routing systems send Shulan-Maersk vessels on seemingly labyrinthine journeys, hence the nickname S&M Transports. These odd routes are alleged to solve the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travelling_salesman_problem traveling salesman problem]in real time. The computers that manage this are said to occupy an entire city on Liann Jiun. Shulan-Maersk occasionally employed charter or independent vessels (usually mid-bulk or light transports) to meet the larger ships en route. These jobs are not strongly sought after because they inevitably require waiting for precise moments to launch or dock, then having plans change suddenly when the computer says so. Shulan-Maersk pays for the time and fuel, but it can be hard a crew, especially if food is running short. <br><br>
