GAC has appointed industry veteran Colin Holloway to head its bunker operations in the Middle East Gulf.

Colin brings to his new role a wealth of bunker experience, particularly on the testing side, as well as solid relationships with key suppliers and customers in the region. Most recently, he served as Regional Manager, Middle East & East Africa, for DNV Petroleum Services in Fujairah.

As Manager of GAC Bunker Fuels in Sharjah, he will lead GAC Bunker Fuels' growing Middle East team, and will also lend his considerable expertise and experience to provide guidance to the global team whenever claims or disputes arise.

Enhancing growth

Commenting on the appointment, Anthony Mollet, General Manager of GAC Bunker Fuels, said: "We are looking forward to working with Colin and his team to further enhance GAC's long-standing relationships with suppliers and customers across the Middle East and Indian Subcontinent.

"GAC's expertise and focus on the wide range of shipping sectors operating in the Gulf and Indian Ocean ensures personalised customer care for all bunker enquiries. And with Colin joining the team, planned growth and diversification of GAC Bunker Fuels' services will be further developed within its strongest region."
