CETUS MARITIME
Cetus Maritime (“Cetus”) is a fully integrated cargo-focused drybulk owner and operator and a leader in the geared drybulk shipping space. Headquartered in the bustling shipping hub of Hong Kong, Cetus seamlessly blends extensive operational expertise with global coverage, with on-the-ground presence in 12 key shipping centers across 5 continents. A team of over 120 onshore seasoned shipping professionals leverages local market knowledge and insights to deliver top-tier shipping services to international blue-chip clients.
Cetus currently operates a dynamic fleet of more than 50 Handysize drybulk vessels, including 32 owned ships, the majority of which are 'eco' vessels that feature cleaner fuels, lower emissions and a significantly reduced carbon footprint.
Pacific Transportation (PT) invested in OSL Holdings in Nov-2010 (then primarily a niche route operator with 2 owned vessels) with a long term buy-and-build strategy. Cetus Maritime is the current evolution following a series of consolidations with other drybulk shipping platforms. Leveraging PT’s expertise in mergers and acquisitions, the company successfully completed 5 M&A transactions over the past 10 years, significantly enlarging the original platform in its fleet size and markets coverage. This has allowed Cetus to service major trade lanes with its modern and diversified fleet, as well as niche trade routes which require significant operational expertise and cargo partnerships. Successful integrations of the acquired platforms have brought complementary personnel and technology, while regular streamlining of operations have created a versatile entity ready to meet the challenges and opportunities ahead.
