The Seatrade Middle East and Indian Subcontinent Awards are designed to celebrate and reward excellence and innovation in the maritime sector across the region over the previous 12 months.
“We are delighted to have been awarded this honour,” comments Knut Brathagen, Regional Vice President for Africa, Middle East and Black Sea (AMB), at Wilhelmsen Ships Service. “The Award recognises Wilhelmsen Ships Service as a front-runner with our ship services offer in the maritime market.”
The Seatrade Awards, which coincided with the Seatrade Exhibition in Dubai are by far the largest shipping awards ceremony in the region. The ship agent award sought to recognise customer service and efficiency, and new services offered.
These are both categories that have been amply demonstrated by Wilhelmsen Ships Service. The company has introduced two new key offers in the past twelve months including the new Ships Spares Logistics and Ships Agency Re-Defined projects, which have considerably simplified administration and logistics for ship owners and operators.
The panel of judges also considered contribution and commitment to the development of the maritime sector across the region, commitment to safety and quality, and social and environmental responsibilities, amongst other qualities.
In addition to agency services, Wilhelmsen Ships Service supplies Unitor marine products, technical services, and maritime logistics.
