ActivityASP's origins date back to 1875 with the establishment of McIlwraith McEacharn, also known as the Scottish Line. For 90 Years the company traded successfully between Europe and Australia until in 1964 McIlwraith McEacharn joined with Adelaide Steamships to create the 3rd Party Ship Management entity called Associated Steamships Pty Ltd. In 1991 Associated Steamships, now owned by Cyprus Coal Limited was merged with the ship management arm of ANL Ltd to create ASP Ship Management, with ANL holding the major shareholding of 60%.

In 1997, ASP Ship Management was acquired by the Pan Gulf Group as part of a global expansion of its ship management business and that business was subsequently spun off as an independent entity. The new group adopted the ASP acronum from its Australian subsidiary to become the ASP Ship Management Group and used it as a new identity without losing that of the regional fleet offices. A typical example of this is found in the UK fleet office where Seascot was re-badged ASP Ship Management Limited.
