Topaz Energy and Marine Bags Two Awards
DUBAI - Marine services company Topaz Energy and Marine bagged two accolades at the Seatrade Middle East and Indian Subcontinent Awards held in Dubai on Thursday.
Fazel A. Fazelbhoy, chief executive officer of Topaz Energy and Marine, received the award for the ‘Personality of the Year’ and Topaz Marine MENA won the ‘Workboats’ award.
The ‘Personality of the Year’ award was one of three special honours on the night, bestowed upon individuals for their significant and lasting contribution to the shipping and maritime industry throughout the region.
Topaz Marine MENA earned Topaz’s second award of the night. The ‘Workboats’ award was secured thanks to Topaz’s fleet size and the great diversity of the fleet that includes anchor handling tug supply vessels, platform supply vessels, multi purpose supply vessels, workboats, crew boats and specialised vessels such as a cable lay vessel, a DP-II subsea construction barge, a DP II maintenance support vesssel and a DP I support vessel.
Topaz’s low average fleet age, blue-chip client base and laudable safety track record also helped tip the scales in its favour.
Topaz was also represented as a finalist through Topaz Marine Repair in the ‘Ship Repair/ Shipyard’ category.
Topaz’s awards were won in competition with prominent companies and individuals of the maritime community in the Middle East and India.
Earlier this week, Topaz announced its $400,000 corporate social responsibiity-sponsorship of the Flying Angel at the Middle East Workboats Exhibition organised by Seatrade.
