🚢 Last week, our high-heat tanker 𝗜𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝗺𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 arrived in Zelzate (BE). Vroon CEO 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗷𝗻 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗻 took the opportunity to visit the vessel, together with Supervisory Board member 𝗙𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝘁𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗻, Iver Ships Managing Director 𝗟𝗲𝗼𝗻 𝘃𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝘂𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗷𝗸 and Superintendent 𝗟𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘃𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗹𝘂𝗶𝗷𝘀.

𝗖𝗮𝗽𝘁. 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗹 𝗱𝗲 𝗞𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗸 and his crew extended a warm welcome to the visitors, sharing their enthusiasm for the vessel.

Iver Ambition had arrived from Malmö, Sweden to discharge her cargo. During the visit, the vessel was heating up her cargo tanks in preparation for loading the next cargo, destined for Canada. Iver Ambition is engaged on a regular trade between Canada and North West Europe, carrying warm and hot temperature chemicals and oil products. Following several modifications in recent years, she is now a unique ship capable of carrying warm and hot temperature cargoes consecutively.

⚓ Thanks to the vessel’s crew for their time and hospitality. We wish you continued safe sailings!

🎉 Last week, 𝐅𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐍𝐨𝐞𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐬 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐬 was congratulated on 33 years’ service with the Company by his colleagues on board high-heat tanker 𝐈𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐲. 👏

Fitter Delos Santos joined us in April 1993, with his first seven years spent on board our livestock carriers. In August 2000, he was assigned to product tanker 𝐈𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐥. Except for one contract with Livestock Express, he has served with Iver Ships ever since. Over the years, he has switched between product tankers and high-heat tankers, and is currently a valued member of the team on board Iver Beauty. ⚓

Any anniversary is a reason to celebrate, but more than three decades of loyalty is definitely worthy of recognition! 🙌 Thank you, Fitter Delos Santos, for your hard work and dedication throughout this time. We wish you all the best as you continue your valued contributions to the success of Iver Ships.

Yesterday, our 𝗜𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 colleagues congratulated 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗵𝘂𝗶𝗷𝘀𝗲𝗻 on two decades with the Company.

🌍 ⚓ Floris started his journey with 𝗩𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗻 at the end of April 2006, as Newbuilding Superintendent in our Breskens office. Over the years, Floris has been involved in many newbuilding projects at shipyards around the world. From product tankers to offshore-support vessels, livestock carriers to bitumen tankers, Floris has provided invaluable input for almost 50 vessels.

From 2017 to 2020, Floris supported the 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 team at our Breda office, initially as Superintendent and later as Purchaser, followed by 18 months as Purchaser for 𝗩𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗕.𝗩. Since December 2021, Floris has worked as Superintendent for Iver Ships, a role in which his wealth of experience has been a positive contribution to an extensive number of ship-repair and conversion activities.

Looking back over this time, the pattern is clear: ships have become larger, projects more global, deadlines ever optimistic — but Floris has remained a common factor, still going strong!

🙌 Congratulations, Floris, on 20 years with the Company. Thank you for your hard work, professionalism and dedication over the years!

After Toledo I stopped by J.W. Wescott in Detroit and just missed the downbound CSL Group's Thunder Bay on the Detroit River, but I did see this sight. That's the tanker Iver Bright surrounded by fishing boats. 4.11.2026

✅ Last month, the 𝗜𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 team successfully completed its annual ISO and DOC audits.

On 19 March, the Gibraltar Flag DOC audit was conducted. Subsequently, on 24, 25 and 26 March, RINA carried out the DOC audits covering Portugal, Marshall Island and Dutch flags, as well as ISO standards 9001, 14001 and 45001. After four days, the audits at our Breda office were concluded with zero observations on all mentioned DOCs and ISO standards.

🙌 We would like to thank everyone on board, the 𝗩𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗻-𝗙𝗶𝗹 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 (𝗩𝗙𝗦𝗠) team and our office staff for their valuable input, dedication, cooperation and professionalism, all of which contributed to this excellent result.
