Martin Helweg promote to the new position
P&O Maritime Logistics (POML) has appointed Martin Helweg as its new Chief Executive Officer.
For the past three years, Helweg has been responsible for P&O Maritime Logistics’ global operations. He will report to Mike Bhaskaran, DP World’s Chief Operating Officer, Logistics and Technology.
Earlier, Helweg spent over 15 years in marine service solutions working for Svitzer, an AP Moller-Maersk Company in regional CFO and CEO roles across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
P&O Maritime Logistics was created last year following DP World’s acquisition of Topaz Energy and Marine and its integration with P&O Maritime. The combination of the companies brings greater financial strength, allowing increased investment both in the fleet and in technology and innovation.
Offering a distinctive value proposition to customers, POML focuses on three strategic segments – Offshore, Port Services and Logistics – delivering world-class capabilities across industries, with safety and the environment at the forefront, the company said in a press statement.
“P&O Maritime Logistics will continue to innovate to offer our customers a wide portfolio of services,” said Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Chairman and CEO of DP World.
“We will leverage our strengths, and our organization’s core capabilities and maritime legacy to change this industry and deliver maximum value to our stakeholders,” commented Helweg.
