Due to the continued uncertainty surrounding Covid-19 and restrictions in Singapore, we have decided to take our Awards Ceremony online.

Join us and other maritime industry figures as we celebrate the contribution to welfare made by seafarers worldwide in 2021.   We will be releasing details on how to join the awards shortly, so watch this space.

The Seafarers Awards are highly anticipated internationally and we are excited to announce that this year the event will be hosted by Sharanjit Leyl and professionally delivered Nova Dynamic Media. Sharanjit will be joined by Robert Walker (COO of ASP Group and MtS Chairman Singapore), Toh Soon Kok (MtS Singapore chaplain), Rashpal Bhatti (Vice President Maritime & Supply Chain Excellence, BHP), Nick Potter (Head of Shipping and Maritime, Shell in Asia and the Middle East) and Esben Poulsson (Chairman, ICS and Vice President, MtS). Key speakers from the maritime industry will also join the Awards, including MtS Secretary General, Andrew Wright, our Judges, and Silver Sponsors.
