Polaris has been appointed by one of the Gulf’s biggest shipping operators Oman Shipping Company (OSC) to support its English language public relations.
Polaris is working with OSC to promote the delivery of its newest ship the Adam LNG, one of the most advanced and eco friendly of its kind in the world. See picture, left and notes below.
Polaris director Ben Pinnington, pictured below at Oman Drydock in Duqm, Oman, said the company has delivered extensive media coverage worldwide for OSC and its new vessel across the Middle East and international maritime media.
“We are really pleased to be working with OSC growing our maritime, offshore and energy client base,” he said. “We offer a unique skill set few other PR firms can match. We have worked hard to develop a track record in the maritime sector building on our training as elite qualified British journalists. We are also developing a strong knowledge of media and maritime sectors in Oman and the wider Middle East. This background enables us to deliver substantial media coverage at a good price. We see this as a powerful offering.”
Polaris also works with Oman Drydock Company, one of the biggest and newest shipyards in the world based in the Gulf’s new port and logistics city of Duqm. In November Polaris visited the Jordanian Capital Amman where it appointed Innovation Culture as one of its Middle East representatives.
The Adam LNG is a 162,000 cubic metre capacity vessel built by Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) in Ulsan South Korea. It will operate worldwide with 25 crew including four Omani cadets.
