Essar Shipping Limited is not just a large fleet but a safe one as well. Our fleet handles a daily average of eight million barrels of crude oil, 320,000 barrels of petroleum products and 355,000 tons of dry bulk cargo. We have always done so with responsibility and respect for the global community’s health, safety and the environment concerns. Our safety record is to the best in the world. Our voyages have been safe because we have consistently complied with the stringent quality and environment regulations laid down by our clients as well as competent onshore and offshore staff. Our fleet has successfully passed the scrutiny conducted by international oil companies to establish governance and sea worthiness standards.
Essar Shipping is also ISO 14001 certified. We are also one of the first companies to be awarded the ISM Document of Compliance in 1995, three years ahead of the ISM requirement.
