Monjasa has emerged as the only bunker industry player to be selected as a finalist in two upcoming maritime award events.

The global marine fuel player joins the likes of DP World UAE Region, Kuwait Oil Tanker Company, and ABS as a nominee for the Safety and Quality Award at this year's Seatrade Maritime Awards, Middle East, Indian Subcontinent and Africa, which will be held on October 9.

Monjasa has also been nominated for the The Safety and Security Award in the 2017 Maritime Standard Awards, Middle East and Indian Subcontinent, which will be held on October 23.

Both award ceremonies will be held in Dubai.

"Unlike most bunker companies, Monjasa has since 2014 developed an integrated management system certified to Quality, Environment, and Occupational Health and Safety in accordance to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and OHSAS 18001:2007," Thorstein Andreasen, Communications Manager, Monjasa, told Ship & Bunker.

"Both the bunker and shipping industries currently face increasing regulations and our efforts within this field target our customers and business partners. Yet, we are of course pleased to receive this overall industry acknowledgement as well."

The nominations follow a concerted effort by Monjasa to improve standards in the industry, and in January the Group said it was "leading the race" for improved quality bunker operations on a global level.
