The Fairdeal Group, which was established in Greece a quarter century ago, is a shipping company offering a complete package of services including ship management, oil transportation logistics, onshore/offshore storage, slop/waste disposal and treatment facilities, oil spill response, safety equipment services and ship agency.

Keeping to the principles of quality, safety and innovation, Fairdeal is also one of the first shipping companies dedicated to environmental protection. Among the number of awards and certificates the Company has been awarded, are the ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System and Quality System for Safety Division and ISO 14001:1996 Environmental Management System. The Fairdeal Group is also an associate member of several maritime, environmental protection associations including the Regional Clean Sea Organization, The Hellenic Marine Environment Protection Association, The Baltic and International Maritime Council and others.

 “We provide all our services in Fujairah, just as we do in our six other offices around the world. One of them is the storage facility for liquid cargo at the anchorage off Fujairah,” informs Gopal Iyer of Fairdeal. The function of the offshore storage facility is greatly enhanced because it has blending and heating capability. In addition, Fairdeal’s diversified fleet of smaller vessels is available to collect, store and redeliver cargo, supported by the Company’s professional in-house ship-to-ship transfer experience and under the umbrella of its environmental protection services.

The storage tanks in the offshore anchorage have to be cleaned from time to time especially when one liquid cargo is emptied and the same tank is filled with a different liquid. Since they are deep tanks, specially trained cleaners are employed to do the job. Dulsco have been providing tank-cleaning personnel to work on Fairdeal tanks for some time now. These men are aware of safety procedures and they are also trained to Fairdeal standards to do their work safely in the close confines of the tank.

“Like us, Dulsco has also been here for a long time. We have grown together and now we are neighbors too. We are very satisfied with the Dulsco personnel who work for us and rarely have any complaints. Dulsco and Fairdeal are partners in this service and would like to continue this partnership,” says Iyer.

Fairdeal also hires blue-collar personnel from Dulsco whenever necessary for different types of works.
