Executive Ship Management

A first class bachelor degree holder of Mechanical engineering and Degree in Marine engineering from India's most premier Directorate of Marine Engineering, B.S.Teeka started his sailing career in 1979 with the Shipping Corporation of India as a junior engineer.

Subsequently he joined a Hong Kong management company as a fourth engineer and began an odyssey which landed him in the position next to none other than the founder of the company within 14 years of joining.

A well-known name in the professional ship management circle in the international world, Mr. Teeka decided to venture alone into the world of ship management with the opening of Executive ship management in Singapore. Within three years the company has bloomed into one of the most professionally run ship management companies in the far east.

ESM under the able leadership of Mr. Teeka has been one of the very few companies in the world, which was granted ISM certificates from DNV, Norway and NK, Japan from the day the operation of the company started.
The idea was not to impress the clients but to put the house in order from the day one as an efficient and organized ship management company.
A proactive and prompt management style together with the high tech computerization essentially differentiates ESM from its competitors in the international arena.

Following the vision of Mr. Teeka, ESM has embarked on giving a new face to the ship management profession through the infusion of the latest computer and information technology. We, as ship manager are closer to the principal than ever before due to the technology and never before could any principal monitor their vessels under a manager the way it is possible through us.
