SERVING GLOBAL TRADE
Welcome to Emarat Maritime, a dynamic shipping company
expanding worldwide from a regional base with a multinational team of skilled
professionals providing the highest quality of service.
Headquartered in Dubai, Emarat
Maritime is a highly diversified and one of the most
successful and prominent United Arab Emirates business enterprises that has
within its portfolio of businesses ship owning, shipping agencies, air cargo,
logistics and warehousing, travel & tourism, hospitality, retail fashion,
electronics, automobiles, supply chain management, terminals and rail
operations, financial and investment services, educational institutions, real
estate development and information technology.
Emarat Maritime operates a
modern fleet of ships, recognized worldwide as the “Dubai Series”. The Company’s
focus is on dry bulk and the energy market. Commencing operation in 1990 with
focus on the regional agricultural products trade, the Company changed its
strategy with the turn of the century and acquired the first handymax bulk
carrier in 2001. Since then there has been no looking back and the current fleet
stands at ten modern handmax and Super handymax bulk carriers, one modern
Aframax crude oil tanker, one VLCC tanker, three container feeder vessels and one multipurpose
vessel.
With global growth continuing to
drive the International shipping trade, Emarat Maritime has embarked on an
ambitious investment programme to meet growing demands with a new building
programme comprising of five Super Handymax bulk carriers and three cape size
bulk carriers, three post panamax
bulk carrier and eight Aframax tankers on order. Further orders for new
buildings are currently under discussion with shipbuilding yards.
Over the years, Emarat Maritime
has evolved as an organization that is highly conscious of Quality, Safety and
Environmental protection. In 1998, the Company successfully implemented a
Quality Assurance programme that lays great emphasis on these issues and also
includes a very stringent training programme for its shore based and floating
staff. The results are clearly evident today in the Company’s operations,
quality, safety and maintenance standards of its fleet, efficiency of office and
shipboard personnel and customer relations. The under lying concern for
environmental issues is further reflected by the investments made to ensure that
the Company remains ahead of all existing and future international regulations.
The Emarat Maritime team
comprises of highly experienced, professional and disciplined individuals who
work within the frame work of International Shipping Standards thus ensuring
total customer satisfaction.
This firm belief in people,
leadership and technical excellence is aimed at providing highly efficient,
quality, safe and reliable services enabling Emarat Maritime to provide the best
possible returns for its clients.
