We are very proud to be associated with the Plastic Odyssey project https://plasticodyssey.org/en/ . On October 1st, 2022, the M/V Plastic Odyssey Vessel set sail from Marseille for a 3-year expedition. It is headed for regions most affected by plastic pollution. On board the laboratory ship, 20 explorers have been tasked with finding concrete solutions to combat plastic pollution.

We are offering Marine Agency operations support across Asia, our teams will be handling the scheduled port calls in Cambodia, Philippines, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Malaysia and India, in addition to the recent stay in Singapore.

The Mission to Seafarers – Global Ambassadors Meeting

The Mission to Seafarers – Global Ambassadors Meeting

On Monday 6th November, Ben Line attended the first Global Ambassadors meeting of the Mission to Seafarers (MtS) in Singapore. Attended by representatives from Shell, Rio Tinto, Anglo American, South32, Fairfield Chemical Tankers, Swire Bulk, BHP and Eastern Pacific Shipping, as we discussed ways to help improve seafarers welfare across the world.

Through our extensive network of offices across Asia Pacific, and through our wider Waterfront Maritime Services network, we are uniquely placed to be able to make a real difference to seafarer welfare, through our services and interactions with crew during port calls. During this meeting, we heard first hand from shipowners and operators, of their desire to make meaningful improvements to their seafarers wellbeing – as a Group, we will be formulating a clear plan on how Ben Line can best support our principals in their efforts to do this. There will be more to come on this in the months ahead !
