Lies is betting on Thor and Jade-Dienst

02.12.2020

WILHELMSHAVEN. Strong visitor numbers at Jade-Dienst GmbH: The Minister for the Environment of Lower Saxony, Olaf Lies, visited the company personally in October to sign the ship management contract for the oil recovery ship Thor. “We continue to demand that large container ships use the offshore traffic separation scheme in the future, at least in heavy weather. Should an incident nonetheless happen, I am very happy about the fact that with Thor we have a proper specialist ship on site”, explained Lies. Thor is operated by Jade-Dienst GmbH.
