The month of February brought us a whole lot of good news - some of which are already splashed over the top and bottom of the current newsletter! Indeed, the news of the top achievements of our BP vessels were though not unexpected, was heartening and moral booster for all of us. While the Technical managed vessels led the table of high achievers, our manning vessels did not lag behind much either. They both combined captured seven out of top ten list! CONGRATS and very well done to all those on board now and before during the year and keep it up!!

This success proves the quality of our management, our sea staff, our training and the trainers. This quality is achieved through consistent hard work and focus to do our job the best possible way at all time.

Another moment of celebration during this month was receiving the certificate for achieving Integrated Management System (IMS) from NK, Japan to complement our ISM system.

Finally, we are very pleased to announce here that our full fledged preparation for the pre - sea training campus at Lonavala is on and the first batch in take will be for July,2005. All information pertaining to the new campus of SIMS will be soon available in a website which will be linked to our existing ESM site. Do keep a tab!
