Marcura has long been a strategic partner for ship owners and operators. The journey with Pacific Basin started almost 20 years ago while it was accelerating its digitalisation plans to streamline and optimise processes and data across the organisation. Marcura speaks to Kristian Helt, Director (Chartering) of Pacific Basin.

International sanctions are rapidly evolving due to shifting geopolitical tensions, making compliance more complex. Manni Sasani, Marcura’s Commercial Manager for Compliance urges ship owners and operators to actively work with trusted tech partners to assess sanctions risks and ensure compliance, avoiding severe legal, reputational and financial consequences.

Ship owners and operators must maintain business continuity amid multiple global supply chain challenges, including geopolitical conflict and extreme weather. Leaders should reap the business insights of harmonised data and AI that will help minimise risks we can control and boost efficiency and resilience amid a global supply chain in flux.

Marcura is pleased to announce the successful completion of a significant leadership handover. Jens Lorens Poulsen has moved from his position as Group CEO to assume the role of Chair of the Board. Henrik Hyldahn, previously the CEO of ShipServ, has transitioned to the position of Group CEO.

In the dynamic world of commercial shipping, understanding risk is crucial for strategic decision-making, especially in relation to optimising freight pricing. The use of tools like PortLog has become essential for ship owners and operators looking to reduce the discrepancy between the estimated versus the actual P&L of a voyage.

This necessity was emphasised during the recent agri-commodities session at Geneva Dry 2024, where industry leaders from Pacific Basin and Norden discussed the profound impact of these technologies on maritime logistics.
