Gunnar Larsen, NES chairman and CEO of NES’ parent company HAV Group, said: “Siv is an energetic and highly competent leader that over many years has proven her dedication to the constant improvement of the maritime industry. She has a solid understanding of new technology and the role it can play in enabling the maritime industry to operate more cost-efficiently and with smaller environmental footprint. The board is delighted that she has accepted the role as managing director of NES.”
Remøy-Vangen said: “NES is an exciting technology supplier that is perfectly positioned for the blue-green shift. Its innovative products contribute towards decarbonising and making the global vessel fleet more efficient. The company will make a real difference and help the shipping industry reach its emission targets. With its presence in Western Norway, NES is also a company where I can continue the work to strengthen the Norwegian maritime cluster’s competitive advantage. I am grateful the trust placed in me and the opportunity to further develop NES together with my highly competent new colleagues.”
