Seafaring is commonly considered to be a stressful occupation, both physically and mentally, due to its unique working and social environment. In recent years, seafarers worldwide have been faced with further uncertainties due to the Covid-19 outbreak and rising geopolitical tensions. Yet the mental health of seafarers is a topic which has often not been sufficiently addressed in the past. Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement (BSM) is exploring new ways to improve the wellbeing of its crew.

On 4 February 2023, BSM-managed Service Operation Vessel (SOV) “Windea Leibniz” left Ulstein Shipyard in Norway after completing an extensive upgrade. With an increase of cabins from 60 to over 80, the vessel has transitioned from an SOV to a Commissioning Service Operation Vessel (CSOV). Additionally, the ship received one extra pedestal on the stern for Baltic Sea operations to complement the existing pedestal for North Sea use.

Schulte Group, in partnership with naval architect company Technolog, has brought to market a new next-generation design for an LNG bunker vessel.

The inclusion of the maritime sector into the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) is done and dusted to be introduced from 2024. Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement (BSM) is developing solutions to support its customers to navigate the complexity of the upcoming requirements.

Upgrade of SOV capacities

On 4 February 2023, BSM managed Service Operation Vessel (SOV) “Windea Leibniz” finished an extensive upgrade at Ulstein Shipyard in Norway. With an increase of cabins from 60 to over 80, the vessel has transitioned from an SOV to a Commissioning Service Operation Vessel (CSOV). Additionally, the ship received one extra pedestal on the stern for Baltic Sea operations to complement the existing pedestal for North Sea use. The upgrade expands the operational range of “Windea Leibniz” and makes her even more attractive for the offshore market.

As of February 2022, Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement (BSM) is an official member of the All-Aboard Alliance, the Alliance for a Diverse, Equitable and Inclusive Maritime Industry.

Focusing on the development of motivated and highly qualified sea personnel Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement invests in crew training and development through its own facilities.

BSM lives by the philosophy that making mistakes is human but that not all mistakes are the

same and individuals remain accountable for what they do. Adele Crothers from BSM explained
