Dutch Ambassador to Jordan Gary Werfai on Tuesday paid a visit to the Aqaba Port Marine Services Company (APMSCO), the oldest Dutch maritime company operating in Aqaba. APMSCO General Manager Dirk Wijnen gave an overview of the company’s history and the towing and guidance services offered by its tugboats and vessels. Wijnen pointed out that the company offers top-notch marine services to ships that dock at the Aqaba Port, working in collaboration with all relevant sectors, shipping lines, and sea and port authorities in the Gulf of Aqaba. He added that the APMSCO fleet is well-equipped to handle vessels of various sizes and can dock them safely at the port of Aqaba with “utmost precaution”. Wijnen said that the company’s boasts are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, as well as a team of highly skilled and experienced staff to guarantee quality and safe service. The ambassador said the APMSCO, an affiliate of Holland’s Smit Lamnalco, has a great impact on the world’s ports due to its world-class maritime support and highest safety and environmental preservation standards.
