Our ships

The sea remains a great risk for seafarers, even with ships maintained at the highest level of performance. Marfret is a recognised independent shipowner in the maritime and inland sectors.

THE SHIPS ARE A SIGN OF OUR PERFOMANCE

Investing in ships is a long-term commitment with a significant financial burden. Purchasing or building a vessel is one of the major decisions for the company.

The performance and reliability of the ship ensure adherence to schedules and the safety of goods on regular routes.

SHIP MANAGEMENT, AN IN-COMPANY COMPETENCE

A long-established expertise within the company, the ship management is handled internally. Each company employee is aware of his or her responsibilities and of the need to give absolute priority to the prevention of workplace-related accidents. The procedures put in place at head office and on board ship are all designed to ensure the safety and security of the ships’ crews and cargoes and to prevent pollution.

LINE AND FLEET MANAGEMENT

In addition to its vessels in ownership, the company also operates a number of chartered ships, with the same constant attention to
monitoring performance and reliability. The ship management team and the crews are particularly attentive to achieving two main aims: 

• ensuring the fixed day schedule despite any unforeseen events; 

• maintaining the ship in the highest standards to ensure long-term reliability and optimize its residual value. 

Running a fixed-day service whether container or ro-ro, relies on the combined talents of the teams on shore and the crews on board to ensure smooth operations for both the ships at sea and those in ports.
