Omani takes next step on the seas


MOL and Asyad Shipping have welcomed the appointment of the first Omani captain to serve on board an LNG carrier jointly owned by the two shipping companies.

 

The Japanese line MOL has played a role in supporting the development of Oman’s shipping industry since 2003, when the Omani state-owned marine transportation company was established as the Oman Shipping Company (OSC), now rebranded under the name Asyad Shipping.

 

At that time, MOL signed a deal for a “comprehensive business partnership related to growth of the ocean shipping industry” with the government of Oman.

 

MOL support over the years has ranged from procurement of newbuildings for OSC to operational management after delivery. In cooperation with OSC and the Oman Ship Management Company (OSMC), MOL has continued to allocate technical officers to OSMC for training purposes. (cd)
