EURASIA’S
COMMITMENT TO QUALITY AND SAFETY IS REWARDED BY USCG
Eurasia
is pleased to announce that all our managed Hong Kong flagged
vessels trading to US Waters have been awarded Qualship 21 certificates
by USCG. We understand that less than ten percent of all foreign
flagged ships that operate in the United States have earned
this designation, putting these vessels in an elite class. We
consider this as a remarkable accomplishment and recognition
of our commitment to Quality and Safety both ashore and afloat.
The vessels designated into this programme also enjoy certain
commercial benefits.
