World Fuel Services heads to Nor-Shipping


WFS to showcase its fuel and lubricant solutions, host special events and emphasize topics covered in its white papers.



World Fuel Services (WFS) will be showcasing its services at Nor-Shipping for the first time later this month.

The US-headquartered fuel logistics, transaction management and payment processing company will be presenting its fuels and lubricants offering together with its complete range of marine-related solutions.

In addition to its tradeshow floor presence at stand E04-06, WFS is scheduled to host a series of special events, including a customer seminar designed to drive thought-provoking discussions on the key issues facing the maritime industry today.

In particular, WFS says it will use the Nor-Shipping event to further emphasize the importance of subjects covered in its recently published white papers: mass flow meters in Singapore; 2020 global regulations; fuels & lubes choices; and working with a strong counterparty in the marine environment.

"Our offer goes far beyond just fuel," said Paul Lowther, Director of Marine Marketing at WFS. "Nor-Shipping is a great platform to help us illustrate how our team of experts partners with the marine industry to provide a comprehensive product and service portfolio."

Nor-Shipping 2017 takes place in Oslo and Lillestrom, Norway, between May 30 and June 2.
