Anglo-Eastern

Congratulations to RTM Djulpan’s crew who recently received a Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) Safety at Sea award for their heroic efforts in saving six lives. This rescue mission took place in July 2023, demonstrating the courage and commitment to maritime safety that our Anglo-Eastern crew is known for. Well done Captain Bebel and team! We also thank our valued client, Rio Tinto, for their ongoing trust and support in our pursuit of excellence. #AngloEastern #ShapingABetterMaritimeFuture

The past quarter has not been without its fair share of challenges, but as they say, challenges breed opportunities. Anglo-Eastern is embracing these prospects to propel ourselves and our industry forward, while rising to confront any potential issues head-on. Alongside our clients and key partners, we are also making headway toward greener solutions. Most notably, taking on management responsibilities for Windcat’s first Elevation Series CSOVs which will be powered by hydrogen, and M.V. Fortescue Green Pioneer, the world's first dual-fuelled ammonia vessel to have successfully completed trials in Singapore. Anglo-Eastern was also involved in the first ship-to-ship transfer of ammonia, alongside Purus and Trafigura. While this quarter has seen much progress, it has also been a time of reflection for us at Anglo-Eastern. Recent events have underscored the critical importance of safety in our operations. We are more committed than ever to reinforcing a strong safety culture across our fleet, with continued investments in mental health support, advanced training, and onboard safety protocols. In this edition of LeaderShip, we also share insights into some of the key people who make up Anglo-Eastern, including our first “On the radar” piece featuring Tejinder Bhamra, Anglo-Eastern Maritime Academy’s new principal. Additionally, we continue to provide direction at key summits and conferences, while further developing effective partnerships. Read the full issue: https://lnkd.in/gEHRJecS

On August 16 1974, 50 years ago to this day, Anglo-Eastern Ship Management Services was incorporated in Hong Kong. Since then, much has changed but much has also remained the same, with the ethos to "do the right things the right way" permeating through our organisation, and a commitment to excellence and safety taking precedence over outright financial gain. We kicked off our celebrations with clients and partners in Hong Kong back in April and are very much looking forward to a spirited event in Singapore tonight. To everyone who has been part of the company, as an employee, client, partner or supporter, we thank you for your role in Anglo-Eastern's journey. For now, let us look back on the shared laughter, memories and camaraderie of our HK event. Here's to the last 50 years and beyond! #AngloEastern #ShapingABetterMaritimeFuture

Today, on the occasion of Indian Independence Day, we commemorate the spirt of freedom and unity that holds us together across our crews and communities.

At Anglo-Eastern, we are committed to supporting the holistic well-being of our people. Over the past year, we conducted over 60 well-being initiatives, addressing both mental and physical health, for our seafarers both onboard and ashore. We also connected with their families, recognising the importance of supporting the entire crew ecosystem. While enhancing skills and advancing careers is crucial, we believe it is equally important to enrich the lives of our seafarers. By helping them live and work with purpose and enjoyment, we empower them to thrive both professionally and personally. View our latest issue of WeCare to hear directly from our seafarers and learn more about our engaging well-being initiatives. https://lnkd.in/gdg_6gDk #AngloEastern #ShapingABetterMaritimeFuture

As part of CMB.TECH, Windcat, Europe’s leading offshore personnel transfer company, has ordered six Elevation Series CSOVs in partnership with Damen Shipyards. Windcat will now partner with Anglo-Eastern for the technical and crewing management of these vessels. The signing of the ship management agreement for the first vessel was completed on July 19 in Hong Kong between Willem van der Wel, managing director at Windcat and Bjørn Højgaard, CEO at Anglo-Eastern, with this partnership representing a significant development in Anglo-Eastern’s strategy to expand its technical consulting services and fleet management capabilities in the offshore renewable energy sector. By combining our deep industry knowledge and shared vision for a greener future, we are confident this investment in clean energy technology will pave the way for more environmentally responsible maritime solutions. Thank you to Windcat for placing their trust in us in being part of this innovative project to develop the next generation of hydrogen-powered offshore vessels.

Most recently, Anglo-Eastern has reached the milestone of safely bunkering 100,000 m³ of liquefied natural gas (LNG) across our fleet of LNG dual fuel vessels. LNG dual-fuel vessels utilise a cleaner-burning alternative to traditional marine fuels, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helping the maritime industry transition towards a more sustainable future. In pursuit to provide properly trained crew on board and shore managers, Anglo-Eastern initiated inhouse LNG dual-fuel courses in 2021 with immersive training solutions involving simulators and VR training. This achievement was made possible through 35 successful LNG bunkering operations. Anglo-Eastern works closely with key partners in the maritime industry, including Anglo American, BOCOM Leasing, and MOL Chemical Tankers. We are grateful to our dedicated team and partners for their commitment to ensuring the highest standards of safety and efficiency in the use of this environmentally-friendly marine fuel technology. #AngloEastern #ShapingABetterMaritimeFuture
