Fully fledged organization supporting company growth Effective immediately the entire commercial staff of the joint venture excluding its Managing Director but including its Middle East office has been transferred to Evergas with the chartering and operational staff joining the rest of the Evergas organization. The ESE team will continue to service the existing joint venture business for the remainder of the year, but will also immediately focus on developing and maintaining new and existing business for Evergas. Martin Ackermann, CEO of Evergas says: “The immediate addition of the seasoned, dynamic and very experienced commercial professionals to the Evergas organization emphasizes our commitment to the business, and enables us to service and enhance value for our close clients across the globe. Most of the team members are originally from within Evergas, and we are very pleased to see them return to our company” Modern and advanced fleet in place The company has over the past year taken delivery of eight highly advanced vessels, and new deliveries will continue uninterrupted for the next years ahead. Another six new and efficient 12.000 m3 ethylene carriers will join the fleet in the months to come restoring original company fleet size. The additional four ethylene new buildings announced in 2012 of either 12.000 m3 or 17.000 m3 for which the company holds very attractive options have now been chosen as 17.000 m3, and the company is in advanced design discussions with the builders. In 2015 deliveries of the highly advanced LNG / Ethane carrier series will commence, and will equally be a landmark in the Evergas fleet development. “Having renewed and developed our fleet in counter-cyclical times will prove long-term value to our close customers and stakeholders, whilst building on our strong commercial relations, in-house know-how and relative market size to peers”, ends Martin Ackermann.
