Chemfleet

A few decades ago, there were local and international rules that were inconsiderable in ship management. The conventions of the time were a bunch of primitive rules and they were inefficient to apply sanctions. Making new rules and empowering to apply sanctions were regulated by Class Societies. In the past 25 years, not a few new legal arrangements and imposed regulations have saddled masters as well as ship owners and managers with serious responsibilities. Progress in environmental savvy and devastating ship casualties, as well as their negative impact on public opinion, triggered these rules and legitimate arrangements. Those regulations have become more and more important for tankers due to the cargoes carried and risks taken. As a natural consequence, this brought dense and comprehensive inspections and audits for tankers. Obviously all these new circumstances dictate the necessity to hand over the management of ships to professionals. Apart from many other reasons, experience and specialization are considered the foremost parameters in shipping. At Chemfleet, we never forget that either success or failure in the international arena will be billed or credited to the entire Turkish shipping management community. Individual success will not be considered an advantage. In today's modern ship management conception, team working is not a choice but a necessity. Thus, Chemfleet was founded in 2006 and immediately started to render service for ship owners that are in serious demand of chemical tanker management.
