ASRY, the leading ship and rig repair yard in the Arabian Gulf, has used its presence at this year’s SMM Hamburg Exhibition in Germany, to strengthen its representation in the region by signing a new agreement with Peter Gast Shipping (PGS).

According to this agreement ASRY will assign PGS as the authorized representatives of ASRY within the German market.

Dr. Ahmed AlAbri, ASRY CEO, said of the new signing, “The German market has over the years been of key significance to ASRY and we are confident that partnering with PGS will not only sustain this support but also drive growth and success in the future, further strengthening our position as the global yard of choice.”

Dieter Gast, Managing Director of Peter Gast Shipping, commented: “Adding ASRY to our network of trusted partners allows us to offer our wide customer base of marine assets owners a leading yard in the Middle East as an option in their repair plans and retrofitting projects,” he added.

Peter Gast’s Managing Director, Christian Gast, confirmed the positive impact the deal will have on ASRY’s reputation in Germany: “Combining ASRY and PGS, both with over 45 years of experience, could indeed lead to some exciting synergies”.
