HSE

The company corporate culture is characterized by the individual taking the company motto ”Think First – Act Safe” seriously. This helps us not only to attain our business targets, but also targets related to Health, Safety and Environment. Recently we marked the fact that two of our ships have sailed more than 3000 days without lost time injuries of any kind.
The excellent result reflects great credit on all our employees, at sea and on land alike.

Behind the strategy of operating a modern fleet with highly qualified crew lies the aim of reducing risk to the lowest possible level and provide high quality service to customers and partners.

We are determined to incorporate safety into all aspects of vessel design and operation through Quality Management which satisfies the demand of our safety conscious customers as well as meeting the requirements of national and international rules and regulations regarding safety and environment protection.
