It's official: Bow Orion has been recognized as ‘Tanker Ship of the Year 2019’!

 

The Riviera Maritime’s Tanker Shipping and Trade Awards honor ‘excellence across the Tanker industry', and as posted in October, Bow Orion was shortlisted in company with two other newbuildings. During the Tanker Shipping & Trade Conference in November, it was confirmed that we came out on top!

"This is a proud moment for us, and it is in every respect a team win. Not only for the Odfjell team, but for the many quality partners that have been involved with their expertise, equipment, innovations and technology. The concept is Odfjell’s, and our inhouse team and site managers have done an amazing job throughout. In close collaboration with the shipyard and carefully chosen suppliers, Bow Orion has truly become the flagship we aimed for.”

Kristian Mørch, CEO, Odfjell SE

VP Newbuildings, Geir Almestad, proudly accepted the award on Odfjell’s behalf at the ceremony in London.

 

 

On board Bow Orion, the happy crew held a simple celebration in light of this recognition.

Many thanks to all of you who voted and spread the word to friends, family and contacts!
