Latest News

A very large crude carrier equipped with LNG dual-fuel propulsion has reached a significant operational milestone, completing its first extended voyage running primarily on liquefied natural gas rather than conventional fuel oil. The tanker’s operator confirmed the vessel maintained stable performance across multiple bunkering calls, validating the dual-fuel system under real-world trading conditions. Industry observers note the achievement reflects a broader shift among tanker owners toward lower-emission propulsion as environmental regulations tighten. The vessel’s owner said the results would inform decisions on further LNG-fueled newbuildings, as the company continues expanding its fleet of next-generation, environmentally efficient crude carriers.

A newly built cruise vessel has completed sea trials and been formally handed over to its owner following nearly two years of construction at a European shipyard. The delivery ceremony, held dockside, brought together shipyard executives, ship officers, and the operator’s leadership team to mark the occasion. The vessel represents the latest addition to a series of sister ships built under the same design program, incorporating updated propulsion efficiency measures and expanded guest capacity. Following the handover, the ship is expected to reposition ahead of its inaugural commercial sailing later this year, joining a fleet that continues to grow amid strong demand across the cruise sector.

Our people are our strength. We welcome applications for our office-based roles and roles based at sea.

"Geden Ship Management is not the largest tanker manager in the market. We have never tried to be. We are a specialist - operating in one of the most technically demanding and compliance-intensive segments in shipping, for clients who cannot afford to get it wrong. The evidence for what we deliver is not in a brochure. It is in the vessels we manage, the relationships we hold, and the operators who come to us because the standard we maintain cannot be replicated at volume."
