GMS Podcasts

Guests: 

Lieve Logghe, Chief Financial Officer, Euronav 

We talk to Euronav CFO Lieve Logghe about how the company was able to reduce its depreciation by Euro 100m and steel’s role in the circular economy. And hear from Ms. Janssen about the progress of ship recycling regulations and the sustainability (or not) of proposed changes to the EU WSR.  

Ship financier Morten Arntzen kicks off our podcast series with a realistic assessment of the tanker market, the need for scrapping and the challenges and opportunities for shipping presented by EEXI and the EU ETS. He talks candidly about his impressions from visiting HKC compliant yards in Alang. Plus what advice he would give to his 25-year-old self.

GMS is the world’s largest cash buyer of ships and offshore assets for recycling. We help our clients achieve their residual value expectations and ensure the safe and environmentally sound demolition of their vessels. We offer free training to recycling yard workers in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh through our Sustainable Ship and Offshore Recycling Program.

We at GMS are avid consumers of podcasts and absolutely love them. We feel lucky to work in shipping, we love what we do, and we like talking about it. 

In GMS podcasts, we will be discussing the big picture issues of crew welfare, De-carbonization. ESG, Ship Recycling, Supply Chain crisis, etc. There will be discussions with people whose ideas and actions today are shaping the shipping industry in 2030, 2050, and beyond. We will also cover something close to our hearts and probably to every shipowner's - Residual Value.
