James Fisher Shipping Services
James Fisher Shipping Services has unparalleled maritime experience in delivering safe, reliable and cost-effective ship management solutions.
As ship owners for more than 170 years, James Fisher Shipping Services (JFSS) provides technical vessel and crew management to the James Fisher fleet of tankers, as well as to the wider tanker, research and specialised vessel markets.
Our tankers are commercially chartered by James Fisher Everard and we aim to run all vessels under our management with the same safe and efficient high standards as our own vessels at all times to enable customers to achieve their operational objectives.
With an emphasis on crew competency, professional development and welfare, JFSS is able to boast a notable service retention and as such has one of the best trained and long-serving pool of seafarers in the world.
JFSS has continually set its safety and operational criteria higher than the required industry levels. This not only enables us to deliver superior standards in our management solutions to all third party vessel owners, but it makes us the industry’s supplier of choice.
"Our outstanding HSE record places us in the top 10 vessel operating companies in the world and one of the best in Europe."
Emergency response:
JFSS operates a 24 hour emergency response centre offering secure communications and an immediate response to any incident.
