The maritime sector’s leading awards event, The Maritime Standard (TMS) Awards 2025, has announced
this year’s winners, honoring 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.”
