The March/April edition of The Maritime Executive, focusing on energy exploration and production, has hit the streets. If you are a subscriber, you will be receiving your copy shortly. If you have not yet subscribed, please click here.

“Iran or No Iran, There Will Be Oil,” Peter C. Glover and Michael J. Economides proclaim in yet another brilliant essay on energy geopolitics. It’s a must-read. In “Drill Baby, Drill,” Barry Parker tells us that “Like a phoenix rising from the ashes…offshore drilling has come roaring back,” and that’s great news. Washington Insider columnist Larry Kiern offers a sobering analysis of the budget reductions being imposed on the shipbuilding industry as the Obama Administration hacks U.S. Coast Guard and Navy budgets. The rough times continue for MARAD and the industry as the Administration has never recognized U.S. maritime as a part of the national transportation infrastructure. So don’t miss what is happening on Capitol Hill from a true insider’s point of view.    

DNV and its CEO, Henrik Madsen, are featured in this edition. Additionally, Wendy Laursen has written two more solid articles for this edition. Wendy's article on "Fuels & Lubes: Meeting the Low-Emissions Challenge," demonstrates a true command of the subject as she reviews new engine specifications and upcoming emission requirements while interviewing some of the top people at some of the top companies in the industry. 

Wendy also caught up with the globe-trotting CEO of PG Marine Group, Roy Norum, for an insightful look at the Norwegian's quest for staying ahead of the technological curve while building a financially solid company. This Executive Achievement feature on Norum is about personal diligence and a commitment to excellence.
