We were delighted to co-host the 172nd Informal Tanker Operators’ Safety Forum (ITOSF) — a distinguished gathering where leading tanker operators and maritime professionals from around the world came together to exchange insights, best practices, and ideas that drive a safer maritime industry.

This year’s forum was proudly hosted by Besiktas Shipping, Ditaş Tankers, Yasa Tankers, and YMN Tanker — a collective effort that highlights our shared dedication to safety, collaboration, and continuous improvement in maritime operations.

As Besiktas Shipping, we remain deeply committed to fostering a strong safety culture and supporting platforms that encourage open dialogue and innovation across our sector.

We thank all participants and contributors for making this event both insightful and impactful. Together, we continue to strengthen our shared commitment to safer seas and operational excellence.
