Wilhelmsen Ships Services (WSS) is attending the 35thAustralasian Oil and Gas Exhibition and Conference (AOG) with an agenda of helping the offshore industry reduce costs, increase efficiencies and safeguard its people. The latter will be the focus for the launch of a brand new product, the Unitor Life Jacket, tailor-made for the demands of the harsh offshore environment.
WSS, the leading global provider of products and services to the shipping industry, has a track record of involvement with key regional projects, providing complex agency services and advanced products to a broad range of offshore and subsea contractors.
He imparts that WSS proprietary brands such as Unitor and Nalfleet provide long-term cost and user benefits – ranging from efficient galley and accommodation cleaning through to unbeatable protection of assets (e.g. from corrosion) – while also offering standardised high quality. All worldwide WSS chemical brands are produced in a single location in Tonsberg, Norway.
Market-leading services such as the Life Raft Exchange Programme (LRE) provide both cost and safety advantages, with WSS replacing out of date units with advanced, operational rafts on a rental basis. This alternative to traditional ownership means costs are reduced, maintenance concerns are eliminated and any weak links in the supply chain are avoided.
The WSS AOG stand will be situated at i8. In addition to the firm’s regional agency and products specialists, global refrigeration expert Svenn Jacobsen, WSS Technical Product Manager Refrigerants and Refrigeration, will also be on stand to assist visitors with their enquiries.
