Japan’s Mitsui O.S.K Lines (MOL) has awarded a three-year contract to serve its vessels and port calls across Australia to GAC Australia, part of the global shipping, logistics and marine service provider GAC Group.
The contract was signed by Mark Austin, Managing Director of Mitsui O.S.K Lines Australia, and Phil Coolican, Managing Director, GAC Australia.
MOL is one of the world’s largest marine transportation companies, operating a global fleet of more than 900 vessels with an overall capacity of around 66 million deadweight tons (DWT). That fleet includes containerships, bulk cargo carriers, car carriers, oil tankers, chemical products carriers, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers.
Phil Coolican adds: “This is a highly significant contract for GAC in Australia and we are delighted that MOL have entrusted their fleet to us. Our extensive operation across Australia is focused on helping MOL to deliver their strategy in Australia, and beyond, by providing the highest quality services and working closely with them to make sure that all of their needs are met.”
