GL Marine Services Restructure
Classification society Germanischer Lloyd, fresh from victory in its takeover struggle with rival Bureau Veritas, has restructured its Maritime Services. From last month, the Maritime Services are subdivided into the divisions Fleet in Service, Ship Newbuilding, Maritime Systems and Components, and Innovation and Strategic Research. Consisting of a number of competence centres and departments, each division has been assigned to a client group.
Over this period, the most environmentally friendly carrier for port to hinterland operations at Germany’s biggest seaport carried a total of 6m tons of goods, for the most part consisting of bulk goods like ore, agricultural products, foodstuffs, animal feeds and mineral oils. The volume of transport rose by 6.5% in comparison with the same period last year, making for the best result since 1990.
