Orion Reederi GmbH & Co. KG, a private independent company specialising in commercial, crew, and technical ship management for the Bulk Carriers sector, is a longstanding Veson Nautical client and has partnered with us since 2014.
We spoke with Xiaobei Wang-Diesing, Orion’s Financial Controller, to discuss how the VesselsValue solution helped them transform their decision making and ability to secure new opportunities.
What were the key challenges you needed to address before subscribing to VesselsValue?
Obtaining reliable and up to date information on the shipping markets is our top priority. To meet our clients’ needs and provide effective consultancy, having accessible market data was a necessity to deliver better advisory solutions.
What problems does VesselsValue solve for you?
VesselsValue has been extremely useful in providing easy, instant access to individual vessel information that is not only reliable but valuable to help us fulfil our clients’ needs. Our subscription to VesselValue’s daily updated Market Values enables us to better understand the current market and make informed decisions when advising our clients.
As a shipowner company, having easy access to real-time values of our fleet, as well as our competitors’ fleets, has greatly improved our financial decision making processes. Through the VesselsValue platform, we can now spot trends in the market, which has been crucial to the success of our deals.
“VesselsValue has enabled us to access valuable and reliable vessel information, keeping in line with the current market—and providing a tool for collaborative deal successes.”
—Xiaobei Wang-Diesing, Financial Controller, Orion
