The office will be headed new recruit Holly Cummings as Ardmore’s chartering manager (Americas). Cummings joins Ardmore from Stena Weco where she was involved in MR chartering.

“Our new office offers us the opportunity to build upon our existing relationships and strengthen our profile, both in Houston and across the Americas,” she said.

 “Although it has always been an important player as a shipping and energy centre, Houston is emerging as an increasingly dynamic and fast-growing hub for chartering business and a great strategic location, with more and more shipping companies choosing to locate and do business from here.”
