Bunker firm aims to expand its presence in the Middle East and Indian subcontinent with experienced trading team.

Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc has confirmed the launch of a bunker trading office in Dubai.

The operation has started with a team of two experienced bunker traders and the support of one operational assistant.

"We are pleased to confirm that Aegean has a bunker trading team in Dubai which will boost our relationship with customers and suppliers in the Middle East and Indian subcontinent," said Jonathan Mcilroy, Bunker Trading Manager at Aegean.

"The group has a long history in Fujairah and Khor Fakkan as a physical supplier and adding a back-to-back trading team is the next step in expanding our market presence with clients in the region."

Aegean's trading team in Dubai includes Sherin Sheriff (Trading Manager, Middle East) and Hany Saad (Supply Manager, Middle East).

Sheriff has 20 years' bunker trading experience having previously worked for companies including World Fuels Corp and Peninsula Petroleum.

Saad has been in the industry for seven years and previously worked for Cockett Marine Oil and Peninsula Petroleum prior to joining Aegean.

"Sherin and Hany are both very experienced and are well-known bunker traders throughout the Middle East. Aegean is happy to welcome them to the team and we look forward to growth in the region," Aegean said.
