Bahri Logistics US
Bahri, formerly known as NSCSA, was established in 1978 as a publicly listed company. Its eminent shareholders presently include the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF), Saudi Aramco Development Company, as well as prominent Saudi businessmen and financial institutions.
The company began its operations with just four multi-purpose vessels and, today, it is among the world’s leading and most highly renowned shipping organizations. Bahri Currently owns a diversified fleet of over 84 specialized vessels that transport crude oil, chemical products, general and project cargo, and dry bulk goods, with an additional 9 VLCCs on order.
After beginning as a carrier of general cargo, the company entered the chemical transportation business in 1990 by establishing National Chemical Carriers Ltd. Co. (Bahri Chemicals) in partnership with SABIC, one of the leading global players in this sector. The company diversified into oil transportation in 1992 by commissioning five VLCCs. Today, its oil transportation unit operates 37 VLCCs, four MRs and one Aframax, making Bahri one of the largest VLCC owners and operators in the world.
Expanding further, the company incorporated its wholly owned subsidiary Bahri Ship Management to provide comprehensive and professional technical management services for all of Bahri’s vessels.
In 2010, the company further diversified its activities by entering the dry bulk transportation sector by establishing Bahri Dry Bulk (BDB) in partnership with the Arabian Agricultural Services Company (ARASCO).
Bahri offers its logistics customers a wide range of integrated services that can be easily accessed through an online e-Services facility, which provides clients with information regarding voyage schedules, cargo and vessel locations, ETAs and ETDs.
Simultaneously with the marine expansion, the company developed onshore facilities by building its own container yard at Jeddah Islamic Port, and plans are in place for a similar facility at King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam.
With a committed workforce of more than 2,400 employees and a strong global network, Bahri provides comprehensive services to its customers, and serves as a “One-Stop Shop” for all logistics activities.
Bahri strongly believes that an expansion and continuous improvement of its services in the global logistics industry will not only enhance trade, but also contribute to the national development whilst maximizing returns on shareholders’ investments.
