The Armona Denizcilik & Atlantis Tankers family celebrated the end of the Summer 2021 with a party. Additionally the party coincided with a farewell of our esteemed Tanker Broker Gökhan Samurtalı.
It was a great celebration on our 6th floor terrace in our office. Drinks were served at the bar from 16:00 and lasted till 19:00. A mixture of international charts and nostalgic Turkish music was played and allowed for some funny dancing moments.
We want to thank Gökhan Samurtalı for his 8 years of service. He was of great value to our organization and is a true teamplayer. We wish him all the best in his new role and challenge.
On behalf of the Atlantis/Armona family, we wish you all a healthy, safe and prosperous start to the Winter Season.

Climate change and the reduction of the emissions on our ships has become a Top-Management priority.
Our CEO Lorenz Weinstabl and CTO Marlon Weinstabl conducted sea trials in the Marmara Sea on the Atlantis Alhambra after her Antifouling was renewed and the was engine overhauled during the Interim Survey and Drydock in Tuzla.
The trial comprised measurements of the engine load at different vessel speeds in a fixed pitch mode (combinator) and at constant speed (variable speed) to show the savings we can achieve if the pitch control propeller is used in fixed pitch and variable engine speed. Should the analysis indicate that we have considerable savings using the combinator, then the conclusion will be to install frequency converters to the shaft alternator system to enable the use of the shaft generator for supply of the home-load when its nominal speed will drop and the frequency will fall beyond the point it can still supply electric energy.
In the picture are from left to right Cem Durmuş (Service Engineer, ESM), Marlon Weinstabl (CTO, Armona), Lorenz Weinstabl (CEO, Armona), Aydın Yılmaz (Technical Manager, Armona), Emrah Demir (Chief Engineer, Atlantis Alhambra) and Erdem Akar (3rd Engineer, Atlantis Alhambra). A special thanks to Captain Serdar Rodoslu and his bridge team which were driving circles between Yalova and Tuzla with much patience.

The International Safety Management Code (ISM) requires Shipping Companies to have procedures for conducting both internal and external audits to ensure that the ship as well as the shore organisation is doing what is documented in the Safety Management System.
Carrying out internal SMS audits help companies measure the effectiveness of their own systems. Internal SMS audits are potentially more important than external audits for controlling the effectiveness of the system, since companies stand to gain or lose more than from the external audit bodies if the system fails.
One of our internal audits was carried out on ATLANTIS ARMONA by our esteemed DPA and HSEQ Manager Mr. Gökhan Pehlivan at 20.09.2021. All kinds of subjects from the engine compartment to deck issues, from cargo operations to personnel responsibilities and from the legal responsibilities to emergency preparedness were discussed at lenghts onboard at Rotterdam Port.
After completing an effective and successful internal audit, our DPA & HSEQ Manager enjoyed a delicious meal prepared by our ship’s cook in exellent company of our crewmembers. We wish our crew fair winds and calm seas, and lots of success in safe operations during their contractual period onboard.

Capt. Nusret Efe Er (aka. The Salt Bae of Shipping) joined the Atlantis/Armona Family on the 6th of September 2021. He will assume the role of Operations Manager, while also playing an active part in the Chartering Team as Tanker Broker. Nusret is a highly motivated and dynamic individual who has the capacity to bring in fresh ideas and facilitate rapid learning for our many new Junior Tanker Operators.
Having studied at the prestigious international Koc High School, Nusret opted for a Bachelors Degree in Marine Transportation at the Istanbul Technical University & the SUNY Maritime College in New York. After completing his studies he sailed on various tanker vessels of V.Ships UK, Chemfleet and Harren&Partner (among others) as Deck Officer. Nusret further strengthened his extremely strong academic background by completing a Post Graduate Degree in Marine Insurance from the World Maritime University. He later opted to work on shore, starting his working career at YMN Tanker, working as Assistant Operations Manager for 5 Years, followed by 2 years as Assistant Manager in Chartering. Lastly, in the past year he setup Petro Tanker Brokers’ Istanbul Office, before joining us.
Nusret and Atlantis’ philosophies coincide, as the company perceives a cornerstone of its recent success to be the recruitment of ethical, good-natured, and sound charactered individuals that put the needs of their team first, before their own. As CTO Marlon Weinstabl explains: “We want to work with people that create and sustain a pleasant working environment. Furthermore, they should reflect the values of Atlantis. With Efe and the new team, we are confident that our company values and quality will continue to improve, specifically that we can further build upon improving our systems and work practices to provide our Charterers and Broker Houses the service we believe they deserve & appreciate of Atlantis”.
Thus, with that being stated, Atlantis is extremely pleased to announce that they have formed a great Commercial Team that represents its ethos and business ethics in the best possible manner, providing our clients & stakeholders the friendliest, most trustworthy, honest and transparent service.
Welcome to the team, Nusret!

After his extensive studies, Onur worked for 9 years in the Banking Sector, starting at Garanti BVBA, and later becoming a Branch Manager at ING Bank. After political problems in Turkey further worsened, ING pulled-out from Turkey, forcing Onur to re-invent himself. He opted to become an HR and DPA Assistant at a shipping company, staying in that position for 3 years. He later moved to the UAE based Movers Trading’s Istanbul office, becoming the Crewing Manager in charge of all office employees, and of course the 140 crew members working on the 7 dry-bulk vessels the company owned.
Throughout his career, Onur developed good administrative skills, and the ability to work with, and analyse IT/office systems (setting up Mover’s EMS System with Danaos). Throughout his time in corporate finance (and especially in selling loans to SMEs), he developed good communication abilities, has excellent team spirit, accuracy, initiative and service-oriented attitude. His logical approach to problems and ability to work within time limits and under pressure are much appreciated characteristics that will make him succeed in his new role as Tanker Operator and Junior Tanker Broker.

Webinars, in other words web-seminars, become one of the strongest elements of the New World Order along with the COVID-19 pandemic global formation.
This interactive implementation keeps communication activities alive and makes current information exchange possible between people who are from the same and/or different work areas.
We, as ARMONA Denizcilik Family, entered the webinar world with our first webinar on the subject of “Risk Management and Risk Assesment” which was carried out on 24.06.2021 and was well-attended by our crew members as well as from the office staff.
Our first webinar was prepared and presented by our DPA & HSSEQ Manager Mr. Gökhan Pehlivan. The webinar started at 10:00 a.m. and lasted about four and a half hours. The presentation was informative and provided an opportunity to exchange ideas; while streaming colourful videos, keeping the crew members engaged.
We were lucky that our fleet vessels were able to participate in the webinar during the whole period due to excellent internet connection services on-board our vessels.
We, as ARMONA Denizcilik Family, are looking forward to organising new webinars since our first one has left us a great taste in our mouths.

…and its not all about ships. The COVID-19 Pandemic with numerous waves and lockdowns resulted in more free time and gave the opportunity to relive again a Beetle that our CEO has been driving ever since his university stay in Munich. During the 18 months restoration which Lorenz Weinstabl carried out in his workshop the chassis was separated from the body and all parts were entirely dismantled. Thanks to our seafarers who were off-signing in ARA ports and the generous care of our agents’ Dynamic, loads of parts could be shipped to Istanbul to maintain a steady flow during the reconditioning process. This Beetle is a VW 1302LS Cabriolet built by Karmann in 1972 and the latest researches indicate that its origin goes back to Ing. Josef Ganz rather than the official version that it was concepted by Ferdinand Porsche.
