Rickmers Shipmanagement has won a new client in the shape of Samudera Indonesia for a pair of bulk carriers.

The contract for the two bulk carriers from the Indonesian shipowner is for technical management including crewing. The contract with Samudera Indonesia along with a recent a 16 vessel contract from Westfal-Larsen sees the Rickmers Group move into the management of bulkers.

“Our shipmanagement approach is based on a particularly high level of transparency ensured by extensive technical, financial and operational reporting, and supported by our focus on energy efficiency and performance monitoring,” said Ignace Van Meenen, ceo of Rickmers Group.

“This approach provides our customers with immediate benefits and has been independently confirmed by our positive rating by RightShip of 4.7 out of 5 possible points.”
