In a climate of enthusiasm and optimism, MEDTUGS consortium welcomed a newly built tug to its fleet, which signals a promising future for the towing industry in Greek ports.
This is the second tug, which N.E. SVS has received in just a few months, which was created with the participation of the companies VERNICOS, SPANOPOULOS and LYMBOUSSAKIS, three leading companies in the towing and salvage industry in our country.
The welcome and naming ceremony of the newly built tugboat was attended by friends and associates of the company and the Managing Director of ATTICA BANK, Mrs. Eleni Vrettou, was the sponsor of the ship “E.SVS II”.
Present were the Managing Director of VernicosScafi Dimitrios Vernicos and his brother Giorgos Vernicos, the Managing Director of Spanopoulos Group Michalis Spanopoulos, the Managing Director of Lymboussakis Salvage Kostas Lymbousakis, the Port Master of Piraeus Angelos Grammateas, the Managing Director of ATTICA BANK Eleni Vrettou, the Shipping Director of the bank Kostas Economou and other officials.
Costas Violidakis, General Manager of SVS, emphasized that the new tugboat enhances the ability to provide high-level services tailored to customer requirements and the increased needs of the port of Piraeus, which continues to develop, invest and steadily transform into an international hub port of the Eastern Mediterranean.
At the same time, Mr. Violidakis referred to the support of ATTICA BANK, which is a valuable ally in every new step, and thanked everyone who worked for the implementation of this investment, the technicians, the partners and of course the staff who are the soul of every success.
According to information, SVS has ordered two more similar tugs at the MEDMARINE shipyard and is about to acquire a salvage vessel equipped with DP2 system for offshore and open sea salvage operations.
May the new tug have safe journeys!
