John Xylas, CEO of Ariston Navigation Corp, has been elected as the industry body's chairman, Intercargo said in an emailed statement.
DImitris Fafalios, president of Falafios Shipping, is stepping down as chairman after six years at the helm, and will become honorary chairman.
Metaxia Psalti, chief operating officer of Neda Maritime Agency, has been elected as the organisation's new vice-chair.
