James Fisher Fendercare (JFF) & DYNAMARINe Partnership: Q&A
Background
JFF has partnered with DYNAMARINe to drive a step-change in ship-to-ship (STS) operational safety and transparency. This strategic collaboration combines JFF’s decades of operational expertise with DYNAMARINe’s data-driven risk assessment platform to set a new standard for the global STS market.
For further questions or to explore how this partnership can support your operational goals, please contact your JFF representative directly.
We’ve always believed safety must come first in STS operations. DYNAMARINe’s independent risk evaluation and transparent audit framework compliments our operational knowledge, creating a data-driven, third-party verified system that encourages industry-wide improvement.
Our shared goal is to:
· Raise global safety standards by introducing a transparent, consistent risk evaluation framework.
· Empower energy companies, P&I clubs, and shipowners to make better-informed, lower-risk decisions.
· Drive continuous improvement across the entire STS sector.
By:
- Supporting independent audits through trained classification societies.
- Establishing objective, data-backed scoring to distinguish top-tier operators.
- Encouraging all operators to raise their standards - not just those who traditionally lead.
- Visibility of true safety performance - with independent verification.
- Reduced audit burden - data available in a single transparent platform.
- Lower risk exposure - backed by data, not self-promotion.
No. We actively encourage all operators to engage with these higher standards. The goal is an inclusive, transparent marketplace that benefits everyone committed to safe STS operations.
No. This partnership is about improving safety and accountability across the sector. Independent audits ensure that no single operator, including JFF, can influence outcomes.
- The agreement includes robust conflict-of-interest safeguards.
- Audits are carried out by independent classification societies.
- JFF’s role is to share operational insights to inform better processes, not to influence audits.
This collaboration is fully aligned with:
- OCIMF guidelines.
- Evolving industry best practices.
- Broader ESG commitments - ensuring safety, environmental protection and transparent governance.
The partnership has an initial term of 12 months and will continue as long as it delivers improvements to the safety and transparency of global STS operations.
We see this as a transformative moment - moving away from price-driven decisions to a model where objective, risk-based data drives the future of safe, compliant, and efficient STS transfers.
