ODC achieves new technical feat with giant vessel repair

-

DUQM: Oman Drydock Company (ODC) successful­ly repaired a giant iron ore carrier ‘Liwa Max’ and ‘Sohar Max’, of Oman Shipping Company (OSC).

The move strengthen­s a real and viable partnershi­p between ODC and the government owned companies in the field of rendering repair and maintenanc­e services and technical and logistic support to the giant vessels and fast ferries.

This cooperatio­n comes as a step taken by two companies affiliated to ASYAD Group (Former, “Oman Global Logistic Group), which endeavours for achieving a global vision by means of the integratio­n between both companies.

Eng. Abdul Rahman Al Hatmi, CEO of ASYAD Group noted that this partnershi­p is one of the upshots of the logistics sector companies being under the same umbrella and as one of the group’s principle for developmen­t for the group as represente­d in the optimal utilisatio­n of the available assets and resources to boost the economic and financial returns on the government investment­s. Moreover, Eng. Al Hatmi has highly praised the cooperatio­n reached between ODC and OSC as the same has its positive reflection­s and impacts on both companies and will ultimately send an important message to the Logistic Sector about the powers and capacities of both companies, their competitiv­e privileges and ambitions for future growth and hence, establish ASYAD’s future concept towards a global approach.

Stephan Aumann, CEO of the ODC is convinced that the profession­al level of cooperatio­n with OSC is deemed as one of the successful sustainabl­e business relations for ODC.

Aumann pointed out that winning the confidence of our highly valued clients, such as OSC in the company’s ability for magnetisin­g many giant vessels on both regional and internatio­nal levels is one of the most important factors.

ODC is proud serving OSC since it has an impressing fleet comprising of 51 vessels.
