October 31, 2025, UAE: The maritime sector's leading awards event, The Maritime Standard (TMS) Awards 2025,
has announced this year's winners, honouring outstanding companies and industry leaders from across the Middle
East and Indian Subcontinent. The Awards showcased achievement and innovation in 25 categories covering
shipping, logistics, ship repair, offshore services, marine technology and related sectors, as well as a series of special
awards for individual achievement. The prestigious event took place at Atlantis The Palm, Dubai on October 29th,
attracting over 1000 senior executives, decision-makers and industry leaders, from the region, and across the globe.

Held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of the Dubai Civil Aviation
Authority, Chairman of Dubai Airports, and Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group, the event
recognised organisations and individuals for setting new standards in operational excellence and leadership in the
sector amid significant shifts in the industry, including decarbonisation, digitalization, and a renewed emphasis on
supply chain resilience. From clean-fuel projects and AI-powered port operations to international collaborations that
boost trade efficiency, the 2025 Awards showcased the industry's progress in turning goals into tangible outcomes.

The evening was hosted by Yalda Hakim, a renowned international correspondent and documentary filmmaker,
whose engaging presence added distinction to the occasion. The keynote address was delivered by Captain
Abdulkareem Al Masabi, CEO of ADNOC Logistics and Services, who shared valuable insights on the evolving
maritime landscape and the UAE's leadership in advancing sustainable and innovative practices across the sector.

Clive Woodbridge, Editor of The Maritime Standard and Chairman of the Judging Panel, stated, “This year's
competition was exceptionally tough, and we received an unprecedented number of entries across all categories.
Each finalist demonstrated remarkable achievements and operational standards over the past year, which underlines
the significant advances that continue to be made in the regional maritime sector.”

A rigorous assessment process was conducted as part of the award selections, and this was supervised by an
independent panel of distinguished judges that included some of the most prominent names in the maritime industry.

Trevor Pereira, Managing Director of The Maritime Standard, commented, “These Awards are not just about
celebrating success, but also about encouraging excellence. This year's event recognised innovative concepts,
exciting new initiatives, and outstanding performance standards. As the region continues to expand its maritime
infrastructure and digital port systems, with significant developments across the Middle East and the Indian
Subcontinent, events like The Maritime Standard Awards play a key role in reinforcing its position as a global leader
in shipping and maritime.”
