Svitzer og Titan Salvage fusionerer

A.P. Møller-Mærsk’s bjærgnings- og slæbebådsrederi Svitzer og Crowley Maritime Corp’s Titan Salvage fusionerer deres bjærgningsaktiviteter i et fælles selskab under navnet Ardent. De to parter afslørede i december 2014, at der var indledt forhandlinger.

”Virksomheden vil blive brancheførende inden for fjernelse af vrag samt nødberedskab. Vi er gået sammen om at opbygge et mere moderne og effektivt udbud til den maritime sektor”, siger Peter Pietka, administrerende direktør for Svitzer Salvage, der vil fortsætte som CEO i det fusionerede selskab.

Det fusionerede selskab Ardent ejes ligeligt af Svitzer og Crowley. Fusionen træder i kraft fra 1. maj 2015 og får hovedsæde i Houston, Texas. Selskabet vil også have kontorer i Holland, Storbritannien og Singapore.

Svitzer hævdes at være førende inden for nødberedskab. Titan er til gengæld i toppen når det drejer sig om vragfjernelse og stod blandt andet for Costa Concordia-projektet, der er verdens hidtil dyreste bjærgningsoperation.

”Denne fusion samler nogle af de mest erfarne, velanskrevne bjærgningseksperter i verden. Vores samlede styrke betyder, at vi kan levere et stærkere netværk på globale nøglepositioner”, siger Chris Peterson, vice president for Titan Salvage til TradeWinds.

Chris Peterson har fået forunderlige titel fusionsdirektør, mens Jeff Andreini bliver økonomidirektør, Renier van den Bichelaer, salgsdirektør og Paul van't Hof, operationsdirektør.
