At AMSOL, we understand the importance of building a sustainable business and investing locally in each area of operation by ensuring that we have a diverse and inclusive workforce, a robust supply chain and partnerships which aim to improve the communities in which we work. In South Africa this is no different. Our continued commitment to transformation underpins our company’s Mission and we are therefore pleased to have maintained our Level 2 Contributor Status to Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment, verified annually against the requirements of the Maritime Transport & Services Sub-Sector Codes.

Utilising a fleet of four product tankers and two bunker barges, AMSOL conducts bunker deliveries to vessels in port and offshore on behalf of clients in the Energy sector. More than 370 000 tonnes of marine fuel was delivered safely in 2022. A strong focus on safety and environmental protection as well as in-depth technical knowledge on international standards and compliance ensures that we deliver a risk-managed solution. AMSOL also conducts Ship-to Ship (STS) cargo transfers of petroleum products, chemicals and gas at the ports of Richards Bay, Ngqura, Cape Town and offshore Angola.

2022 has come to an end almost as quickly as it began. Indeed, time has sped up in our post-pandemic world and 12 months have come and gone, bringing with them both challenges and opportunities.

AMSOL was in good company at the Top Empowerment Awards which took place on Thursday, 21 July. Featuring alongside other well-known South African brands leading transformation in their sectors including BP, Sanlam, Bathu, Nedbank, MSC Cruises, Ithuba and Cell C amongst others, AMSOL was a finalist in both the ‘Business of the Year’ and ‘Education & Skills Development’ award categories which is testament to the company’s commitment to driving transformation, diversity and inclusivity in the maritime sector.
