"Jeg er begejstret og beæret over at indtræde i stillingen som administrerende direktør for BW Epic Kosan. Siden dets stiftelse har jeg haft det privilegium at være en del af virksomhedens vækst, til i dag at råde over verdens største flåde af last-mile gastankskibe. Virksomheden har aldrig været stærkere, og vi er godt positioneret til at levere yderligere værdi, ikke kun inden for vores kerneområde LPG og petrokemi, men også ammoniak og CO2”, siger Jakob Bode.

Jakob Bode begyndte sin shippingkarriere hos AP Møller Mærsk i 1997 og har haft stillinger hos Maersk Tankers i USA, Saudi-Arabien og Singapore. Han kom til Lauritzen Kosan i 2010 og blev udnævnt til Managing Director for J. Lauritzen Singapore i 2016. Han overtog rollen som Head of Chartering, East of Suez, hos BW Epic Kosan i 2021, og blev udnævnt til Chief Commercial Officer i marts 2024.

“Vi byder Jakob, som har mere end 25 års erfaring indenfor gas-skibsfart, velkommen. Han har de seneste fire år arbejdet tæt sammen med Charles, hvilket sikrer en problemfri overdragelse af CEO-posten”, siger Andreas Sohmen-Pao, bestyrelsesformand for BW Epic Kosan.
