Rescue Operations in the Antarctic.

These pictures shows the drama when Juvel rescued 97 Chinese Sailors from a trawler on fire in Antarctic.

Juvel managed to go alongside the vessel Kai Xin and saved everyone with the deck crane and a crew basket 5 by 5 with 3mtrs wave and 15kn wind. The heroic rescue operation went on for about 45 minutes.

One person had injuries from severe smoke intoxications, but he was successfully treated by the �vet� onboard of Juvel.

After 6 hours onboard the crew was transferred to another vessel in the area.

The Kai Xin sank the day after the rescue operation, according to the reports.

Both the Chinese Ship Owner and official Chinese Governments has shown their gratitude to the Master and Crew of Juvel and to Olympic for this life saving rescue operation.

Olympic Shipping AS is well ahead in the process of implementing the new MLC2006 code.

Olympic has started with vessel certification and everything indicates so far that all vessels in the offshore fleet will be approved within the important deadline at 20.08.2013.

Olympic has in this certification process had very good help from the local maritime consultant company Marine Q and Karl Erik Sande (photo), who has been working for Olympic since November 2012 together with departments at the main office to ensure good procedures, clarifications towards class/authorities and internal training.

The key aspect of Olympic Seafood’s environmental efforts is the technological excellence of the krill-collecting vessel Juvel, which allows low emissions, low energy use and low climate impact.

challenging enough. Fortunately, there are

23 a lot of clever people working with us, so normally this works out well.

4.

You have been on the Olympic

Commander, Orion & Taurus lately.

What is your opinion about these ships?

Now, I have been lucky enough to get some short trips on all those ships and have to say that they are very nice boats to work on. They have been built to do many different jobs. They have an advanced cargo system as well as they can easily be converted to subsea jobs, so I think the Company will have great benefits from these.

5. How do you see the future of offshore activities?

Subsea operations show a big trend currently, but, we know this comes and goes like waves. So it’s reasonable to be prepared for everything. Hope and believe that there will be a lot of activity in the northern regions and that many ships from Olympic probably will be there. Personally, I prefer to travel south, but let’s see what happens. Now Brazil is the next big thing on the market and shows a great need for ships. I hope the Office in Brazil can make big achievements in this market.

6. What do you like doing in your spare time?

I haven’t had many days off lately, but when this happens I spend most of it on my home island Frøya with my family.

Doing some work around the house and I have a small boat and a houseboat so spending some hours with this too. But my passion is motorbikes and then it’s just a Harley Davidson that counts!

7.

What will you be doing in ten

years time?

Then I will most likely be sitting on board in some Olympic vessel and grieve about how little I will get in retirement in a few years! But for now, I would like to wish all my colleagues a great summer!

OLYMPIC MARÍTIMA

Our major challenge now will be the process to start the transfer of the contracts. We’ll start with Olympic Elena and Olympic Promoter in July and during the next months with Olympic Progress and Olympic Pegasus.

Our target is to conclude this process of transfer of the contracts from ASSO Marítima to Olympic Marítima, as soon as possible. Participate of new tenders with Olympic Vessels and possible partners.
