Dear Reader,
Welcome to BigNews 38! A new year has begun. We wish you all a very good, and most of all, a healthy 2022. The COVID-19 situation has moved into a more static situation: it is there, it can be very obstructive in the run of things, but we have to move on and work around it. Our vessels are plying the world’s seas and take your cargoes where you want them to go. In port we sometimes run into, unexpected, delays because of COVID rules and work-arounds must sometimes be invented on the spot. As yet, the situation still requires everybody’s patience and resilience, but we, jointly, still manage to deliver the cargos safely. Cargo-wise, we can say we have been everywhere: up in the Northern Sea Route, down in the Antarctic and everywhere in between. In this issue we show you a handful of interesting projects and hope you will enjoy them. You will find our involvement in the Coral project, deploying three vessels; our grand old lady m.v. Happy Buccaneer still going strong, lately between China and Japan; m.v. Happy Star handling shiploaders, and to start, the Marine LNG Arm replacement we conducted high up in the North of Russia. With the new year just starting, we trust we will be able to service your needs in the transportation and assembly of your cargoes and projects with fresh vigour. Enjoy reading this issue and most important of all: Stay Healthy!
