WHO WOULD YOU ASK? “Hello Doctor, yes, I do have a dry cough and a suspiciously itchy rash but I’d also like to find a new Head of Operations to run our fleet”, are the words no-one has ever heard.    Which is why we founded Stonefort Marine Talent. To provide a deeply practical, effective alternative for both clients & candidates: maritime executive search & leadership capability building grounded in a deep, genuine understanding of maritime people & businesses. Between us, we have a broad mix of maritime backgrounds: roots in commercial shipping (deck & engineering) & the military as well as senior leadership experience ashore (crewing, vetting, commercial, strategy, technical & fleet operations) and in maritime best practice organisations.   Which means, when someone says, “I’d like to find a new Head of Operations to run our fleet”, we know exactly the right questions to ask, both of the client and prospective candidates. When someone says, “Can you help train our senior leadership?”, we know exactly how to break down the born-from-the-sea cynicism that might accompany another corporately-mandated training programme. And, if a client is struggling to bring talent from sea to shore, we know exactly where the critical weak points & fractures in the pipeline might be.   So, while we’re happy to leave coughs & rashes to the doctors, if you’re after expert maritime advice about maritime people then give us a call or drop us an email: mark.fortnum@stonefortmarine-talent.com or mark.hanson@stonefortmarine-talent.com.

Years spent in rough sea waters shape a person's perspective and provide several valuable insights. For our Chief Engineer Olegs Davidovs one proverb, in particular, stands out: "Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors." To our #teamLSC and young seafarers, he says this: Embrace the difficulties you encounter at sea. Don't shy away from rough waves or unpredictable winds. See them as opportunities to strengthen your skills, overcome challenges and achieve your goals in the maritime industry.

“Russia’s magic trick”: #LNG carriers from South Korea will join the #ArcticLNG2 Project via the #UAE. The article reads: In 2022 a South Korean shipyard terminated contracts with #Sovcomflot for the construction of three ice-class #LNG carriers for the #ArcticLNG2 Project in Russia. But the ships have been completed. The owner of the first of them is a little-known company from the #UAE, through which the #LNG carrier may soon end up serving a sanctioned project. The 'Pyotr Kapitsa', which the #HanwhaOcean shipyard (formerly #DSME) originally built for #Sovcomflot, has found an owner from the #UAE. As gCaptain writes with reference to ship registers, on February 1, New Transshipment FZE, registered in the #UAE, became its owner. Two more #LNG carriers, 'Lev Landau' and 'Zhores Alferov', remain owned by #HanwhaOcean. “#NOVATEK will do everything to use these #LNGCs. The vessels are only suitable for #ALNG2, as they are too expensive for transportation in open water,” Hervé Baudu from the French Maritime Academy (#ENSM) told the publication. He considers what is happening to be “Russia’s magic trick”: “Buy a ship through a company in the #UAE. The ship market is like this. All that remains is to find a qualified team." gCaptain noted that #NOVATEK has already used the #UAE to obtain technology bypassing #sanctions. As a result, the #USTreasury imposed #sanctions on Green Energy Solutions LLC in September. For now, the 'Pyotr Kapitsa' remains at the South Korean shipyard. “The only question is when will it be delivered and go to Russian waters,” said Ben Seligman of Arctic oil and gas development. Earlier, the president of Japan's #MOL, which also ordered three ice-class #LNGCs from #HanwhaOcean for #ALNG2, "complained to #Bloomberg that it is now impossible to charter these vessels to the project due to #sanctions, but it is also difficult to sell them". Russian Deputy PM Aleksandr Novak stated that #ALNG2 could be launched in February. However, the project does not yet have a single #LNGC, a number of which are also being built at the Russian shipyard #Zvezda. Experts discussed the possibility of using #LNGCs serving #NOVATEK's first project, #YamalLNG. However, it is served by foreign-owned #LNGCs, except for one. And foreign participants in the project may not support it. In November last year the US imposed #sanctions against #ALNG2 (capacity 19.8 mtpa from 3 trains). #Reuters then reported that #NOVATEK had sent some clients a #forcemajeure notice per #LNG supply contracts, and #Kommersant reported that #ALNG2's foreign participants had also declared #forcemajeure on their participation. Information also appeared in the media that #ALNG2's Chinese and Japanese participants will turn to the US for #sanctions exemptions. France's #TotalEnergies said it would not lift its #ALNG2 volumes due to #forcemajeure. https://lnkd.in/gYsKq4fS

The Zhores Alferov ice-class Arc 7 #LNG carrier has sailed from the South Korean port of Okpo to Anjeong as part of ship trials. This is evidenced by data from ship tracking services. The Zhores Alferov (#IMO 9918028) was built for the #ArcticLNG2 Project at the #HanwhaOcean shipyard (formerly #DSME) in Okpo, South Korea. On February 26, 2024, the ship left the shipyard and began sea trials. It left Okpo Bay on the morning of February 26, 2024 and on the same day arrived at the port of Anjeong and berthed in the northern part of the port, a voyage of ~ 30 nautical miles (55 km). The Tongyeong #LNG Terminal is located in the southern part of Anjeong Port. This terminal not only receives and regasifies #LNG, but also bunkers #LNG-powered ships. The #ALNG2 Project #LNG carriers are equipped with dual-fuel engines capable of running on both conventional marine fuel and #LNG. It is possible that Zhores Alferov will receive #LNG at Tongyeong to test the engine or #LNG storage system. The Zhores Alferov is the third Arc 7 #LNGC that #HanwhaOcean built under a contract with #Sovcomflot (#SCF). The contract was terminated in 2022, but the three vessels were completed at #HanwhaOcean's expense. The two other #LNGCs in this contract - Lev Landau (#IMO 9918016) and Pyotr Kapitsa (#IMO 9918004) - both remain at the #HanwhaOcean shipyard. Previously, #gCaptain reported that the Pyotr Kapitsa had been transferred to the UAE-registered company New Transshipment FZE on February 1, 2024. However, according to the #Equasis database, the change of registered owner was reversed on February 14, 2023 and #HanwhaOcean again became the newly registered owner of the vessel. The reasons for the reverse re-registration are not stated, but this happened 9 days before the #US imposed blocking #sanctions against the previous owner of the vessel, #ElixonShipping. The Lev Landau and Zhores Alferov, as well as Pyotr Kapitsa, are still registered with #HanwhaOcean. The head of #NOVATEK, Leonid Mikhelson, previously told reporters that #SCF’s contract with #HanwhaOcean was being transferred to another shipowner. These shipowners were the Cypriot #ElixonShipping, #AzoriaShipping and #GlorinaShipping, but on February 23, 2024, the US imposed #sanctions against them, calling them subsidiaries of #SCF. The vessels themselves were not subject to #sanctions, but their ability to work on #ALNG2 is now in question. Three additional Arc 7 #LNGCs are being built at #Hanwha for #ALNG2, these ones for Japan's Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (#MOL) - Ilya Mechnikov (#IMO 9918030), Nikolay Semenov (#IMO 9918054) and Nikolay Basov (#IMO 9918042). On February 16-17, 2024, Ilya Mechnikov left Okpo Bay to undergo tests, during which it reached the port of Goson and returned back. The degree of readiness of the other two is unknown.
